Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA)
When Canadian companies need workers who possess certain skill sets and a Canadian or Permanent Resident is not able to fill the position, they have the option of hiring temporary workers by applying for a Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA), which was originally called the Labour Market Opinion (LMO). An LMIA is issued by the Employment and Social Development Canada (ESDC).
Canadian companies can get this approval to hire foreign workers after receiving a positive LMIA. The LMIA report lays out the conditions of the employer’s job offer. The LMIA must include the employees’ names and other important details.
Work Permit Renewals
Foriegn workers whose work permits are close to expiring or have expired would need to submit a work permit renewal application.

Permanent Residence for Caregivers
Previously IRCC had a live-in caregiver program available for caregivers. Live-in caregiver program was discontinued from June 18, 2019. Thereafter, the two pilot programs - Home Child Care Provider or Home Support Worker began, and will be available till June 2024.
The great news about these two programs is that there is no LMIA required and once the requirements have been met, the workers can then be eligible for permanent residence.

Home Child Care Provider and Home Support Worker Pilots
As of June 18th, 2019, Caregivers and Home support workers who intend to work in Canada have two options to available to them: Home Child Care Provider Pilot and Home Support Worker Pilot programs. These are Occupation restricted opportunities meaning the worker will be required to work as a Home Child Care Provider or Home Support Worker but he or she can change employers if they wish.
This protects the worker as previous programs did not allow for employer switching, so if a worker was in an abusive situation they would not have had the opportunity to switch employers.
Home Child Care Provider and Home Support Worker Pilots
The Home Child Care Provider applicant would need to have at least a one year Canadian Child Care related post secondry certification or international equivalent which would have to be assessed by an approved institution to have an Education Credential Assessment (ECA) granted.
As well, this individual will have to complete at least two years of Canadian work experience in the field.
The same aforementioned requirements are also needed for Home Support Workers, as they would need education and would need to complete experience in this field.

There is the Single-entry Visa which allows foreign nationals to enter Canada only once. There is usually a one month expiration after the date of arrival in Canada, but this may be extended up to a maximum of 6 months after entering Canada.
The second is a Multiple-entry Visa which is issued by Canadian Government with a maximum validity date of up to 10 years as this is time period is reflective of the validity of the passport.
Visitor Permits and Visas
Multiple-entry Visa is a type of visitors visa that is most commonly applied for and the recipient is allowed to enter the country as many times as necessary at the discretion of the Canadian border officials.
