LMIA based WP ⇒
A Labour Market Impact (LMIA) is a document that a Canadian business may need to hire a foreign worker.
A positive LMIA indicates that a foreign worker is required to fill the position. It will also reveal that there is no Canadian worker or permanent resident who is qualified for the position.
