An LMIA pre-approval is an approval “in principle.” Essentially, it is an approval for hiring a foreign worker for the position. Upon a successful LMIA pre-approval, foreign workers get recruited to fill a given position in hopes of being accepted. However, LMIA pre-approvals are not person-specific. Once a temporary foreign worker receives an offer for the position, you must apply for a person-specific LMIA and be successful. We’re always available to answer questions about the difference between typical LMIAs and pre-approvals, and we can help you determine which will be more beneficial for your profile.

A pre-approval allows a business to recruit extensively or for a more extended period. Though related to an LMIA, pre-approvals may vary significantly from a standard LMIA application. Our LMIA services can make the pre-approval process simple and easy.
