LMIA & Employer Compliance Services

Support Canadian Employers with LMIA and Compliance Requirements

Are you a Canadian employer looking to hire a foreign worker? An LMIA may be required to demonstrate that hiring a temporary foreign worker will have a positive or neutral impact on Canada’s labour market.

At G Square Immigration, we help employers understand LMIA requirements, prepare supporting documents, and stay compliant with applicable employer obligations.

What are LMIA & Employer Compliance Services?

A Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA) is generally used to determine whether hiring a temporary foreign worker is justified when no eligible Canadian citizen or permanent resident is available to fill the position.

Employer compliance services help Canadian employers understand and meet their obligations when employing foreign workers, including maintaining employment conditions and responding to inspections or compliance reviews.
