Update on refusal of LMIA's in Alberta. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, all new and pending LMIAs for positions in Alberta must be on the following list of exempt occupations to be eligible for processing. Until further notice, we are refusing to process LMIAs if the position you are looking to fill is not listed, unless they qualify for exemption.

Changes to the Temporary Foreign Worker (TFW) Program Alberta’s government is limiting the number and types of jobs available to new temporary foreign workers making jobs available to unemployed Albertans. As of Nov. 1, dozens of additional occupational categories will be added to the refusal to process list, removing the vast majority of occupations from the Temporary Foreign Worker (TFW) Program. This will result in more than 1,350 available jobs for unemployed Alberta...ns at a time when they’re needed most. Alberta is using its authority under the Canada-Alberta Labour Market Pilot of the Agreement for Canada-Alberta Cooperation on Immigration and has reached an agreement with the federal government. These changes will impact 475 occupations in sectors such as accommodation and food services, retail trade, transportation, construction, and professional, scientific and technical services. A small number of specialized occupations experiencing acute and proven labour shortages will be exempted. These changes will not impact employers recruiting for select occupations in the agriculture, technology and caregiving sectors that heavily rely on temporary foreign workers to fill employment gaps. Alberta will monitor and adjust the province’s refusal to process list quarterly and work with industry experts, businesses, post-secondary institutions, municipalities and organizations as economic conditions improve.
