Sunday, 09 May 2010

Under the latest joint CIC and HRSDC policy facilitating the stay for holders of Post-Graduation Work permits whose employment authorizations are about to expire while their permanent residence applications are being processed, the foreign workers’ current or prospective employers are allowed to apply for an LMO without proof of recruitment efforts provided that they intend to recruit them permanently. All other LMO criteria will apply as usual.
