#222 - LMIA Wage Thresholds Rise

Service Canada has increased the wage thresholds that determine whether an LMIA is classified as high wage or low wage. While the numbers may appear modest, the practical consequences are significant. We explain why many employers in Vancouver and other high-unemployment regions may now be unable to obtain low-wage LMIAs, how the changes affect international graduates on post-graduation work permits, and why these policies are making the path to permanent residence increasingly difficult.


We also discuss the new provincial LMIA wage thresholds, how unemployment rates are reshaping Canada's immigration programs, employer inspections, why the LMIA process has become so complex and common mistakes that can derail an LMIA application.


We also answer live audience questions about IRCC processing delays, citizenship by descent (Bill C-3) certificate backlogs, officer mistakes in PGWP applications, caregiver processing delays and dual intent in the context of Canadian citizenship who may need a study permit due to processing delays.
