FAQs: LMIA Consultants in Calgary
What is an LMIA and who needs one?▼
An LMIA is a document issued by Employment and Social Development Canada (ESDC) that confirms no qualified Canadian worker was available for a position. Most employer-specific work permits require a positive LMIA unless an exemption applies — such as an intra-company transfer, a trade agreement, or a significant benefit designation.
How long does an LMIA take to get?▼
LMIA processing times vary by wage category (High-Wage, Low-Wage, Agriculture) and current ESDC volumes. A complete, well-prepared application minimizes delays. Check Service Canada for current service standards and consult a specialist to avoid common application errors.
How much does an LMIA cost?▼
ESDC charges a government processing fee per position. In-home caregiver applications may be exempt. Consultant fees for preparing the LMIA package vary based on the complexity of the recruitment process and documentation required. Always request a written quote.
Can an LMIA support a permanent residency application?▼
Yes. A positive, high-wage LMIA-supported job offer can significantly boost a candidate's CRS points in Express Entry, potentially making the difference between receiving an Invitation to Apply (ITA) or not. An RCIC can advise on whether pursuing an LMIA makes strategic sense for your path to PR.
