was a positive Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA) issued for the job offer in Canada?

I got a new closed work permit (With a specific employer and occupation) under LMIA EXEMPT (Free trade agreement) for more than 2 years. And on my work permit appears a LMIA or Exempt number: AXXXXXXX. Can I use that number to get the CRS points in my Entry Express profile? Or a LMIA EXEMPTt is not a positive LMIA? Or LMIA number and LMIA EXEMPT number are the same?

If I don't put the LMIA number, I don't get the points.

There is another question below: Was a positive labour market impact assessment (lmia) issued for the current work permit?. The answer is: yes or no, or No, it is exempt.

Is this question a complement of the other one? Can I put: yes is a positive, write the number and the date issued and expired, and then specify with the last question that is a LMIA exempt?

My objective is to get the CRS points with my offer of employment.


Thank you so much.

You say new work permit so assume you have one year of Canadian experience. If so get a new job offer letter too.

No, I don't have one year experience, I just got it. I want to get more point in my EE profile. I just want to know whether I can put my LMIA EXEMTP number as a positive LMIA in order to get the points.

You can’t get add points to your EE profile on LMIA exemption until you have one year Canadian experience. It is in the link provided. You don’t have a positive LMIA.
