Work permit expiring while your employer's LMIA is still in processing? Here's some good news.
As of October 28, 2026, IRCC no longer applies a 90-day limit to eligible work permit applications waiting on an LMIA. Officers will now wait for the final LMIA decision before deciding the work permit.
Keep in mind: a positive or neutral LMIA is still required, the job offer must be genuine, and both applications need to be filed correctly and on time.
Workers and employers, let's plan your LMIA and work permit extension together.
