Hello everyone,
Will this be a good time to apply for LMIA after the job posting?
Hey! I’m also concerned but my lawyer said it’s going to get worser later on, so I applied yesterday. But it’s a risk and also a long shot since there are so many unemployed people right now.

Hey! 1123 Marketing Specialist. From submitting to getting it approved, 13 days. But that’s because my boss took a while to schedule the interview, it was supposed to be around 8 days.
Which country are you from. When you submit the LMIA application, after how many days you got a reply.

Please reply.Thanks

LMIA doesn’t mean WP will get approved. Given the current economic conditions getting an WP may be difficult.

There is a priority processing channel for LMIAs. My friend got an LMIA for an academic position at UBC last year and it was issued two weeks after they applied for it.

Mara71 , I think you already posted in a different thread talking about "misleading" and its completely unfair.
I did receive my LMIA in 3 weeks and its absolutely possible.
Maybe due to the circumstances now, yes it can be delayed. But I have applied for LMIA twice and got it approved in 3-4 weeks.
