7 Canada Work Permits That Do Not Need LMIA
Most Canadian Work Permits require an LMIA or Labour Market Impact Assessment.
Employers usually avoid LMIA because it is long, tedious, and time-consuming.
1. Workers that benefit the Canadian economy
If your company can demonstrate that you will provide a significant social, cultural, or economic value to Canada, you may qualify for this exemption.
2. Canadian interest and reciprocal employment
Through this exception, foreign employees get a chance to work in certain sectors of the Canadian economy, while Canadians can find similar employment overseas.
3. Intra-company transfers
Employers from abroad are not required to get an LMIA to transfer employees to a Canadian branch temporarily. It includes employers from international companies and businesses.
4. Business owners, entrepreneurs and self-employed
To be given an LMIA exemption, foreign nationals who wish to work for themselves or run their own business while in Canada must prove that doing so will significantly benefit Canadian citizens or permanent residents economically and culturally.
5. Programs for international youth exchange
Canada also partakes in a few international youth exchange programs that let young people travel and work without needing an LMIA.
6. International Free Trade Agreements
International Free Trade Agreements (FTAs) may include clauses that make it simpler for entrepreneurs to conduct temporary operations in the member nations. As a result, they are excluded from the LMIA requirement, although foreign workers covered by a relevant FTA typically still need a closed work permit.
6. International Free Trade Agreements
The requirement for an LMIA may not apply to French-speaking skilled workers with a legitimate job offer in a province or territory other than Quebec.
