The Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA) is a critical component in Canada’s work permit process, for employers seeking to hire foreign workers. This assessment is used to determine the impact of hiring a foreign worker on the Canadian labor market. Once a Closed LMIA is issued, it is tied to a specific job, employer, and location. The foreign worker can only work for the employer named in the LMIA and must meet all the conditions outlined in the job offer and the LMIA.

We conduct a thorough evaluation of the applicant's qualifications and the employer's specific needs to accurately determine eligibility for a Closed Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA), ensuring compliance with immigration requirements.
