Hi,
I am trying to fill the application form for PR and am stuck at the intended for work in canada section.
I have a job offer from my employer and have been working in canada for the past one year and am currently in canada on a work permit.
I have a LMIA or Exempt number on my work permit but I do not know the answer to the below question.

Was a positive Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA) issued for the current work permit?

Answer options:
a. No
b. No - My work permit is exempt from an LMIA due to an international agreement
c. No - My work permit is exempt from an LMIA due to a Federal-Provincial agreement
d.No - My work permit is exempt from an LMIA for other reason and is employer specific
 

k.h.p.

The question is essentially asking why your job is LMIA exempt. Is it exempt because of NAFTA or a trade agreement? Are you on a PGWP?
