A Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA) is a document that an employer in Canada may need to get before hiring a foreign worker. Here are some steps to get LMIA in Canada:

- Ensure that your company is eligible to apply for an LMIA.
- Comply with LMIA requirements for advertising and salary.
- Apply online through the LMIA Online Portal or by emailing a PDF application form.
- Wait for Employment and Social Development Canada (ESDC) to evaluate the job offer and the LMIA application form.
- Get a positive LMIA if ESDC agrees there is a need for a foreign worker to fill the job.
The LMIA application process is detailed and requires lots of documentation and recorded data. If you are not required to apply for an LMIA, you can hire your foreign worker directly through the Global Talent Stream program, Intra-Company Transfer program, or TechImmigration programs.
