Why and When does an applicant require an Labor Market Opinion LMO letter for a temporary work permit?
Normally, Work Permits will only be granted by Canadian immigration authorities if supported by a positive “Labour Market Opinion” (LMO) letter issued by Human Resources and Social Development Canada (HRSDC), indicating that the proposed employment will not adversely affect Canadian workers. However, certain occupations are considered “under pressure” and some provinces have made arrangements to ease the entry of workers in these occupations.
