Hi Team,

I got visitor visa multiple Entry - TRV and Eventually, I am traveling to Toronto Next week. I am Planning to get some jobs in Toronto where employers should apply LMIA for me... So what are the maximum chances that I will get work within 6 months or is there any other ways or tricks.? Kindly suggest on this

Generally speaking the chances are very low. Most employers aren't willing to go through the LMIA process. Having said that - some people are successful and you can certainly try. I would make sure you have enough money with you to live without working for 10 months. The processing of the LMIA alone can easily take 2-4 months (that excludes the 1 month advertising required and also the work permit processing time).
