TFW LMIA

[scylla]

This was part of the message I got initially when we began this process.


I just thought I let you know that I have not forgotten you and your family. Just a little info, please read below:


LMIA is short for Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA). LMIA is a document that an employer in Canada may need to get before hiring a foreign worker.

In summary, an LMIA will show that there is a need for a foreign worker to fill the job. It will also show that no Canadian worker or permanent resident is available to do the job. A positive LMIA is sometimes called a confirmation letter.

An employer has to apply for an LMIA for foreign workers. Once an employer gets the LMIA, the worker can apply for a work permit.

This is what happens during stage1 of your visa processing with my immigration group, and that is why it takes 3-4months.

To apply for a work permit, the documents needed are:

a contract
job offer
a copy of the LMIA, and
the LMIA number
Not to worry, all of this is being sorted out for you. Just sit back, relax, and expect god news from us. We will soon send a mail calling you for medicals and biometrics.

What's the actual job offer? What is the job? You must have recieved an email that outlines the job duties, job description / title, etc.

Did the employer interview you? Do you know the name of the employer in Canada (i.e. company / business name)?

The name of the Company in the offer letter is NU FAIR GREEN SOD FARMS. Ontario Canada. The Offer letter is in .PDF which I can't share here.

Also in the employment letter, a paragraph states that a certain deductions will be made monthly for my accommodation

It's really hard to say without seeing the full job offer letter.

Cut and paste it. Have you paid any money? Also for a farm worker, your family would not be eligible to come and work or study.

I can't cut and past here. because it can't. Also I have paid for the full package which is for Unskilled TFW. Also my family is included in the Travel package.

I'm not sure what you mean by "full package". How much did you pay in total exactly?

What did you pay as there is no such thing as a travel package? Families of unskilled workers are not eligible for work or study permits.
