LMIA applications
LMIA applications, end to end
A complete, bilingual LMIA portal — all five streams, employer document checklists grounded in Service Canada guidance, and a guided application with help on every question.
The LMIA is often the slowest, most document-heavy part of a work-permit file — and the employer rarely knows what's needed. Lexova turns it into a guided flow: pick the stream, answer questions with Service Canada help text on every field, and watch the exact employer document checklist build itself.
How it works
Pick the stream
High-wage, low-wage, Global Talent, SAWP or agricultural — the wizard reshapes to the stream's rules.
Answer with built-in help
Every question carries plain-language ESDC guidance, so the employer answers confidently.
Checklist builds itself
Lexova assembles the exact document list from the stream and the answers — business legitimacy, recruitment, transition plan and more.
Why it matters
All 5 streams
One engine covers every LMIA stream with the right fields and documents for each.
Service Canada wording
Question text and document names mirror the official portal so nothing is lost in translation.
Validated before submission
Strict checks catch gaps and contradictions before the application is finalized.
Employer in the loop
The employer gets their own portal with exactly the items they owe — nothing more.
Frequently asked questions
Which LMIA streams are supported?+
All five: high-wage, low-wage, Global Talent Stream, the Seasonal Agricultural Worker Program (SAWP) and the agricultural stream.
Does the employer need their own login?+
The employer can be invited to a dedicated portal that shows only their required documents and tasks, fully isolated from the applicant's personal information.
