Common Questions
Work permit questions Burlington clients often ask.
Can Burlington professional qualifications affect a work permit?
Yes. Education, licensing, certificates, and experience can be important where the job requires specific qualifications.
Are LMIA-exempt work permits automatic?
No. The applicant still needs to fit an exemption category and support it with evidence.
What if a Burlington employer changes the job duties?
Changed duties may affect the permit evidence or conditions and should be reviewed before filing.
