Hi guys, i work in IT for municipal government in Elmira, Canada. My job falls under high paying jobs and my work permit expires on Jan 2025. I was thinking to ask my director of department for LMIA, but someone told me government do not allow or provide LMIA. So how true is that?
Moreover, LMIA is approved based on unemployment rate of the area you for, i work in elmira- ON. So how do i check if my area falls under high unemployment rate?
Note that- i was hired for 18 months initially then i was already promised that i will get permanent job once contract ends. Since OINP doesn’t not support contract job, i had asked them to break the contract before 18 months and offer me permanent job, which they did. But not sure if they can allow Lmia!!
Thanks in advance- if you can answer these two things.
