LMIA and CRS Points Query

[JTMiller]

I have an open work permit (PGWP) and recently received a positive Labour Market Impact Assessment which is not for dual intent. I'm trying to understand if I would be able to receive 50 points towards my CRS score with this LMIA.

Additionally, is an LMIA (not for dual intent) considered the same as a job offer for immigration purposes, or do I need to apply for a dual intent LMIA to qualify?

Any insights or experiences you could share would be greatly appreciated.

You need to switch to a closed work permit if you want to claim the 50 points with the LMIA you have now. Otherwise your employer needs to obtain a dual intent LMIA.

I have a restaurant business operated in several places in Alberta. My employee (currently actively working with me as a sales supervisor) has a profile in Sales and Marketing back home. However, his LMIA was rejected in Calgary due to negative labor impact. I already have a approved LMIA for restaurant operator. Can he use that LMIA for his PR approval in express entry which would be in Sales and Marketing (TEER NOC code would be same for his profile as well as his LMIA approval but the designation would be different) . Will he get necessary approved LMIA points
