When an individual in the entertainment industry cannot receive consideration as a business visitor, and is not eligible for a work permit exempt from a Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA), a LMIA-based work permit is the last option.
Generally, as part of the LMIA process, Canadian employers must demonstrate that employing a foreign worker will have a positive or neutral impact on the Canadian labour market, and that there is currently no Canadian citizen or permanent resident available to fill the position, which is typically done by advertising the position on several venues. However, for certain situations, advertisement and recruitment are not required, thus eliminating what is often the most problematic aspect of a LMIA application. Not having to demonstrate proper advertisement and sufficient recruitment efforts renders the process significantly more expeditious and increases the likelihood of LMIA success. Although the application process is facilitated, the employer must still pay the $1,000.00 government processing fee.
The list of advertising exemptions includes, but is not limited to, the following:
Quebec Facilitated Process
Note: Quebec’s simplified processing occupations list is updated annually. The regional lists below came into effect on February 24, 2019. A transitional period of 30 days was granted to the employer to allow the examination of an application submitted according to the list of the previous year (2018).
These lists are for the recruitment of temporary foreign workers only (not business owners). Some occupations are included in the Global Talent Stream occupations list. These occupations are indicated in the last column of the table.
