Dear friends,
I want to have some feedback regarding success of LMIA. I am in a very tough situation and my lawyer adviced me to go for LMIA..he is pretty sure that with one year of work experience chances of positive LMIA are high..but I want some fee back as I haven't seen many international students going through this route...

Getting an LMIa is very tough unless extremely reputed organization files on your behalf with all necessary documentation. if your consultant is promising you means he is lying and rob your money. So beware

Thanks..Im puzzled, I don't have a consultant..I have a lawyer..A Canadian white lawyer with a very good reputation...he hasn't asked for much money as other consultants are asking...but I have doubts...my company is not extremely reputed ..but holds good reputation and gives good business to province..its not a gora company but desi business...

My husband got a positive LMIA through his company. He had over 2 years experience and the company is a multinational engineering consultancy firm (not sure if that makes a difference). The company submitted the application based on his skills being 'in demand' here and not easily replicated by a Canadian. It took around 5 months for it to come back positive. Good luck!
