๐จ๐ฆ **NEW UPDATE: LMIA GRACE PERIOD EXTENDED TO 90 DAYS!**
A significant update for foreign workers in Canada waiting for their **LMIA** ๐
๐ Previously, eligible applicants had up to **60 days** to provide a positive LMIA after submitting their Work Permit application.
๐ **As of August 21, 2026, this period has been extended to 90 days.**
This change can provide eligible foreign workers with additional time while waiting for their LMIA decision, especially given the current LMIA processing timelines.
โ ๏ธ Please note that **this extension does not automatically apply to everyone**. Applicants must meet specific eligibility requirements, including having a Work Permit that is approaching expiry and an LMIA application that has been submitted by the employer but has not yet received a decision.
๐ Is your Work Permit expiring soon while you are waiting for an LMIA? Make sure you understand your options and take action before your status is affected.
๐ฉ Contact **CanSea Immigration Services** for a consultation and to discuss your specific situation.
