Work Permit - LMIA-Exempt
LMIA-Exempts Work Permits
Such permits are based on bilateral or multilateral agreements between Canada and other countries. The most important international agreements that may be applicable for LMIA exempt work permits are the following:
- Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement (CETA)
- North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA)
- Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (CPTPP)
LMIA-Exempt work permits fall under the International Mobility Program (IMP). While the Temporary Foreign Worker Program (TFWP) assists Canadian employers in filling vacant jobs with temporary foreign workers where qualified Canadians or permanent residents were not available, IMP is aimed at benefiting Canada on a broader context. Among others, IMP stimulates the social, cultural and economic benefits of Canada.
