without LMIA
A Strategic Pathway to Working in Canada
Canada's diverse employment landscape offers unparalleled opportunities for growth and success. While many work permits require a Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA), there are specific pathways allowing you to work in Canada without this assessment. Understanding these unique opportunities can simplify your journey to Canadian employment.
Introduction to LMIA-Exempt Work Permits
A Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA) is a standard requirement for most Canadian work permits, assessing the impact of hiring a foreign worker on Canada's labour market. However, certain situations and agreements allow for LMIA-exempt work permits, offering an expedited and flexible route to working in Canada.
Categories of LMIA-Exempt Work Permits
1
International Agreements
International agreements like NAFTA/USMCA facilitate LMIA exemptions for professionals, traders, and investors from member countries, fostering international collaboration and economic growth.
2
Intra-Company Transfers
Employees of multinational companies may be transferred to a Canadian branch without an LMIA, strengthening global business connections.

Spouses and partners of certain workers or students in Canada may qualify for an open work permit without an LMIA, supporting family unity.

Other Specific Situations
Certain unique cases, such as emergency repairs to industrial equipment or post-graduate work permits for students, also fall under LMIA-exempt categories.
