LMIA to support Permanent Residency

If employers wish to hire skilled foreign national temporarily while their application for permanent residence is being processed by IRCC. Then employer can apply for a dual intent LMIA. This option requires paying the processing fee. These dual intent LMIAs can be used to support the foreign nationals’ application to IRCC for a:

• Permanent resident application; and
• Temporary work permit

• The employer is not required to submit a transition plan under this stream.
• LMIA can be applied under both (high-wage & low-wage) streams.
• The job offer must be for at least one year of full-time work under NOC 0, A or B.

• The LMIA rules, regulations and requirements are subject to frequent changes. These changes deal with different categories of jobs, duration, exemptions etc. Continuous research, attention to detail and painstaking hard work is required to obtain a positive LMIA. We help in assessment of our client’s profile and advice them on their eligibility to get an LMIA.
