Before we meet
Prepare for an employer consultation
A focused LMIA discussion starts with the employer’s needs, the position and the hiring timeline. We have a particular focus on trucking and construction businesses, where role details, work locations and recruitment records need careful attention. You do not need to email documents before the office confirms a secure way to share them.

Recruitment and worker context
A brief summary of recruitment steps and records available. If a candidate is identified, note their current status and relevant dates.

Bring any government correspondence, deadlines or questions about employer obligations and record keeping.
Please do not email passports, identity numbers, financial records or other sensitive documents until our office confirms a secure method for sharing them.
