A Labour Market Impact Assessment is a decision by Employment and Social Development Canada (ESDC) that an employer may hire a foreign worker for a specific position. A positive LMIA approves named positions for a limited time; it is not a standing licence, so ask about the job you are applying for.

Does every job here come with an LMIA?

No. Each job says whether its employer appears in published LMIA results. Some roles are open to foreign workers without an LMIA, and some employers here hire only people already allowed to work in Canada.

Is ApplyWave an employer or a recruitment agency?

No. ApplyWave lists jobs from employers and helps you prepare and send your application. We do not employ anyone or sponsor visas, and real employers never charge money for a job or a visa sponsorship.
