Grace period extended for TFWP work permit applications

The rules just changed for the Temporary Foreign Worker Program (LMIA) in Canada.

Canada extended the grace period for in-Canada work permit applicants by 30 days post-submission to provide proof of LMIA or employer's inability to hire Canadian citizens/permanent residents. This concerns the Temporary Foreign Worker Program (LMIA) in Canada.

Immigration rules shift constantly, and a single change to a route like the Temporary Foreign Worker Program (LMIA) can affect your eligibility, timeline, or costs.
