Navigating LMIA 2023: Which Jobs Have Higher Chances of Approval?
A Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA) is an official document issued by Employment and Social Development Canada (ESDC) to evaluate the consequences of employing a foreign national in Canada. When an LMIA is deemed positive, it signifies that no Canadian citizen or permanent resident is available to fulfill a particular job position, allowing an employer to hire a foreign national. Conversely, a negative LMIA suggests that the position should be filled by a Canadian citizen or permanent resident.
