It's on ANNEX A of your lmia letter- ASSESSMENT expiry date is the LMIA expiry date. It is usually valid for 6 months.

If it's already expired- you can't get 600 points. you need valid LMIA to get 600 scores.
 
What .how. I am on that lmia based work permit. How is that possible. Because that validity is only for assessment of applying work permit.
 
It doesn't matter whether your LMIA expired or not, as long as you have a valid work permit. You still get additional 600 points.

If you are currently doing a job in Canada which is based on that LMIA, then it doesn't matter if LMIA is expired or not, you'll get 600 points for that LMIA.

But if someone is still in his/her home country and applied for work permit based on LMIA and LMIA gets expired, in this case he/she cannot claim 600 points for that LMIA. They will have to land in Canada with LMIA based work permit and start their job. Once they start their LMIA based job, they'll get 600 points for their PR application through Express Entry.

If recruiting from within Canada

"If you have a positive Labour Market Impact Assessment for an employee holding a temporary work permit to whom you wish to extend a permanent job offer, the LMIA may still be valid under Express Entry. However, if the position or person was previously exempt from an LMIA, then a new LMIA will be required under Express Entry."

Thanks Jay be for quick response
 
yes it says "may still be valid under Express Entry" but i heard from one in this forum that his PR application is rejected because of expired LMIA.

AND you need to submit job offer letter+lmia when you submit your PR application. I had applied based on LMIA so its my personal experience.

Good Luck!
