Hi Andreah. I recently applied for a work permit but I'm not sure if I needed an LMIA. I have an employer-specific job offer, and the CIC website kept telling me that I was eligible to apply under the Foreign Workers: International Mobility Program. So my prospective employer submitted the paperwork to CIC and paid the compliance fee. Based on the waiting times you indicated I am not hopeful because my job offer does have an expiry date. Can you tell me what additional documents you needed to provide as well? I am seeing the medical, and I am about to do the upfront medical. Is there anything else?
