LMIA + Work Permit Extension

Navigating the Canadian immigration system can be complex, especially when it comes to securing or extending work permits. Our LMIA + Work Permit Extension Services are designed to simplify the process for both employers and employees. Whether you're applying for a new Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA) or need help extending your work permit, we provide expert guidance to ensure a smooth and successful application.

What is an LMIA?

A Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA) is a document issued by Employment and Social Development Canada (ESDC) that assesses whether hiring a foreign worker will positively or negatively impact the Canadian labor market. In most cases, employers need an approved LMIA before they can hire a foreign worker or support a work permit extension.

For Employers: It demonstrates that efforts have been made to hire Canadian citizens or permanent residents before seeking foreign workers.
For Employees: An LMIA-supported job offer strengthens your work permit application and ensures compliance with Canadian immigration laws.

What is a Work Permit Extension?

A Work Permit Extension allows foreign workers to continue working in Canada beyond the expiry date of their current permit. This process requires careful preparation, especially if an LMIA is involved.
