LMIA Exempt
Who Should Apply for an LMIA?
Most employers of temporary workers need an LMIA before the employee applies for a work permit.
Simply put, an LMIA confirms that you need a temporary foreign worker for a particular position because there are no Canadians or permanent residents available for that position.
To be sure that you and the foreign employee you wish to hire are exempt or not from LMIA, it is best to consult the exemption codes and work permit exemptions. This list can be found on the Government of Canada website.
If any of these exemptions apply to your hiring situation, you should look up your code and include it in your job offer.
You can also contact the International Mobility Workers Unit (IMWU) if you plan to hire a foreign national outside of Canada and is from a visa waiver country.
The most common situations where a person can come to work in Canada without an LMIA are:
- They’re the spouse or partner of a highly skilled foreign worker.
- They’re covered by NAFTA or other free trade agreements.
- They’re international students who have graduated from Canadian universities.
- It is for positions that provide a social, cultural, or economic benefit relevant to Canada.
- They’re qualified foreign workers with proficiency in the French language.
- They’re members of the IEC (International Experience Canada) program.
- It is for positions that fall in the area of international trade agreements.
- They’re transferred to Canada through a multinational company.
