Did you have an employer that was willing to get an LMIA? It will probably be difficult to justify that a Canadian can't be a food supervisor unless in a very remote location.

Just so you know you shouldn't pay any money for the LMIA the employer is supposed to pay. What kind of job and where? I assume an agency arranged the job and applied for you. Do you know others that have made it to Canada using an agency and got an LMIA? Do not pay a lot of money there is no guarantee the LMIA will be approved.

The LMIA letter means nothing. The LMIA must get approved by the government. First the job must be posted for a month to advertise to job to Canadians andthen the government reviews whether they really think a Canadian can't do the job and either accept or refuse. The process takes 4-5 months.

This still seems strange that any company would go through the hassle of applying for and paying for an LMIA for someone outside the country for a job that you would think there are plenty of qualified locals. Must be some very specific type of culinary establishment or in the middle of no where. If it all works out then good luck to the OP but these 'job offers' on the forum often turn out to be very clever scams .
