Info on LMIA

[Wonderland_1010]

Hi guys

I have a question. I know LMIA is hard to get but its not impossible right? So if I were to get LMIA in SK for a low skill wage job, like in Tim Hortons and McDonald, its not impossible right?

My consultant keeps telling no employer wont give LMIA to people with less experience and skills so I just want to confirm what he said is true.

Please Advise

Thanks

I understand that almost anywhere in Canada is like your consultant said, thought in SK in particular I'm not sure but I suppose it's likely the same.
Even if service Canada accept processing the application (let's say SK) a different thing is this app can be approved. Hardly you can prove that there is no Canadian or PR that can't do the job of a McD or Tim Hortons.

It is pretty hard to get a positive LMIA for a low-skilled position not impossible though. The unemployment rate is less than 6% in all regions in SK except Prince Albert and Northern, so ESDC still accepts an application from these regions. Approval of LMIA depends on how well your employer presents the case.
