Pre-Assessed..
Hello there,

Do you or anyone you know has obtained employment through LMIA? If so, could you tell me what are the processing times for LMIA?

Thanks
 
I got a LMIA in January 2015. The time it takes to get one depends on the type of job and pay. It might take months or weeks. If it's for a high skill and wage job it can be fast tracked in less than 3 weeks. If it's not, the company has to go through a long process of advertsment and interviewing which can take a few months. The HR people at most companies have a better idea of what category a specific job falls under, so I'd check in with your company's HR.
 
There's lots of general info & a long running thread on processing times in the 'Foreign Workers' forum.
