lmia

[lunfardo]

if a canadian employer cannot find a local worker and lmia came into the picture that only a foreign worker could fill in the position, would that employer have to prove that is the case? if that employer said that only that foreign worker could fill in that particular position, what is the procedure for lmia? would that company or employer have to prove that, that foreign worker could fill in that position that no canadian could? how does lmia really work? lets say that a translation company in toronto cannot find an accredited translator for a particular language in the greater toronto area so they place an ad online, but this is where it gets confusing, if that were to be the case how would a company in toronto place that ad if they couldnt find an accredited translator in the greater toronto area? would it be online like on ca. indeed.com or what? what would be the first step if a company in the greater toronto couldnt find an accredited translator and only a foreign candidate would be able to fill in the position? would they place and ad online or would they contact the candidate? what would the company do to hire such foreign worker? what would be the first steps on behalf of that employer? can anyone please tell me. rsvp. thank you.

Placing one ad online is not enough to meet the LMIA advertising requirements. The employer needs to place at least three ads. There are also other advertising requirements. Without meeting the LMIA advertising requirements, the LMIA will be automatically refused. Information about LMIA advertising requirements can be found here: https://www.canada.ca/en/employment-social-development/services/foreign-workers/median-wage/high/requirements.html

three ads online and for how long? if a canadian employer placed and ad and no one could qualify in toronto then how would he seek out a foreign worker in that case then? how would a canadian employer seek out such foreign worker if any locals in the greater toronto area couldnt qualify then? rsvp

You need to research the process by reading through the information in the link provided above. If you don't have time or aren't willing to do this research yourself, you will need to hire an immigration lawyer to do this work for you.
