A labor market impact assessment (LMIA) is a public document that an employer in Canada might need to acquire before a foreign worker is hired. A positive LMIA will display a requirement for a foreign worker to fill up the vacant post.
It also displays that no permanent resident of Canada is available to execute the task. Remember, a positive LMIA at times is often termed as a confirmation letter. Once the employer avails of the LMIA, they are one step ahead to apply. To apply for a job permit, a worker needs to have the following:
>> Job Letter
>> A Contract
>> Copy of LMIA
>> LMIA number
What the Overall Process Is All About–
The outright Labor Market Impact Assessment in Edmonton, AB, proves that no Canadian citizens or permanent residents are ready to fill up the vacant position. Since none is willing to fill the empty spot, the employer can invite foreign candidates to apply. Employers need to advertise proactively for the respective work or position for at least a month and interview the candidates who are Canadian citizens or permanent citizenship of the country.
The overall process requires a lot of documentation along with statistical details. For instance, a numerical breakdown of the total number of Canadian applicants, the total number of unqualified members, and the number of complete employment offers are to be established.
