Employers of some types of temporary workers need to get a Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA) before the worker applies for a work permit. An LMIA is a document from Employment and Social Development Canada that gives the employer permission to hire a temporary worker.

Not necessarily. If you are working in Canada on a post-graduation work permit, and have a valid job offer, your current employer will need to get an LMIA if: you need one to meet the program requirements for the FSWP or the FSTP and. your job is not exempt.

Yes, you can hold 2 valid work permits at the same time. You must meet the conditions listed on each work permit.

In general, the period of validity of the LMIA to support a work permit application is 18 months. Note: In certain cases where an employer has specific timelines for a short employment opportunity, ESDC may issue LMIAs that expire in under 18 months.

There are two types of work permit programs in Canada: Temporary Foreign Worker Program: A Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA) is required for a foreign national to obtain a work permit. International Mobility Program: An LMIA is not required for a foreign national to obtain a work permit.

In most cases, an employer must obtain a positive LMIA from Employment and Social Development USA (ESDC) before hiring a foreign worker. Once the employer obtains a positive LMIA, it must be sent to the foreign worker applicant for inclusion in the work permit application. However, not all jobs require a positive LMIA.

An open work permit can only be issued to a foreign national under one of the Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA) exemptions. An open work permit enables a person to work for any employer for a specified period of time. An open restricted permit may restrict the occupation or location but not the employer.
