Some facts on LMIA ( LABOUR MARKET IMPACT ASSESSMENT )
Who Needs a Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA)?
Canadian employers looking to hire temporary foreign workers generally need an LMIA when no Canadian citizen or permanent resident is available to fill the position.
To obtain an LMIA, employers must apply through Employment and Social Development Canada (ESDC) and demonstrate that they have made genuine efforts to recruit locally before seeking international candidates.
A Positive or Negative LMIA
A favorable LMIA, is also known as a positive LMIA, which is also referred to as a confirmation letter, indicating that the employer has effectively shown the unavailability of Canadian workers for the role and the necessity of hiring a foreign worker.
Conversely, an unfavorable LMIA is also known as a Negative LMIA, which indicates the rejection of the employer’s application. This outcome means the employer cannot recruit the intended foreign worker under the Temporary Foreign Worker Program (TFWP).
