Can I go to Canada without LMIA?

Yes, you can work in Canada without an LMIA. The International Mobility Program (IMP) allows employers to hire foreign workers without an LMIA.

However, the IMP has certain requirements that must be met, such as the worker’s country of origin, the type of job, and the duration of the work permit.

If you are applying for a work permit through the IMP, you will need to provide proof of your eligibility, such as a job offer from a Canadian employer.

You may also be eligible for a work permit if you are a student or a recent graduate of a Canadian post-secondary institution. It’s important to note that some jobs in Canada are exempt from the LMIA requirement, such as jobs covered by international agreements like CUSMA or GATS.

If you are unsure whether your job is exempt from the LMIA requirement, you can check with your employer or consult with an immigration lawyer or a licensed immigration consultant.
