LMIA from my employer where I am already working

[jahmedir]

I am already working with my employer since last 1 and half year. Because my EE score is low and only 4 months are left over to expire my PGWP, I have requested my employer to get me LMIA.

The question is that,

Do my employer has to go through the same process of LMIA i.e. post the job at Job-portals, collect applicant's Resume and then determine to continue hiring me and then apply for LMIA?


OR

Since I am already working with this employer and this employer already have gone through the hiring process when they hired me, So can they now directly apply for LMIA?



Please advice...

employer needs to go through the whole process of applying LMIA and employer needs to do it now coz getting LMIA takes a lot of time like months...good luck...

Since I am already working with this employer and this employer already have gone through the hiring process when they hired me, So can they now directly apply for LMIA? would still have to go through the process of LMIA

Hey, I m in the same position you mentioned and was wandering if you were able to obtain the LMIA with your employer and if so how much time did it took?
