Every year thousands of foreign workers come to Canada through the temporary foreign worker program. The temporary foreign worker program was created by the federal government to fill shortages and or Gaps in the Canadian labor market.

Labor Market Opinion (LMO) is now called Labor Market Impact Assessment (LMIA)

In order to hire foreign workers, companies need a positive LMO/ LMIA issued by the government. In order to obtain a positive LMO/ LMIA one needs to comply with advertisement requirements, wages, labor conditions, preparing a recruitment efforts report and completing the application properly. Our Immigration experts will assist you in order to prepare the LMO/ LMIA application for your company. After an LMO/ LMIA is issued the foreign workers can submit their work visa applications at the Canadian Embassy abroad. If the foreign workers are already in Canada then they can apply for a change of employer, or ask for a work permit extension with the same employer.

Work Permits come under following sections under Worker Class:

• Temporary Foreign Worker Program (TFW): For assisting employers who have demonstrated a need to fill jobs for which there are no eligible Canadian citizens / Permanent residents
• International Mobility Program (IMP): For advancing and Enhancing Canada’s broad economic, cultural and national interests
• Post Graduate Work Permit Program (PGWP): For retaining Canadian educated students.
• Trade Agreements: Work permits are awarded with the need of LMIA pursuant to various trade agreements Canada has with different countries e.g., NAFTA, GATS, Canada-Chile free trade agreement, Canada-Peru free trade agreement, Canada-Columbia free trade agreement.
