She has advertised in a number of places with mostly unqualified candidates applying. She wishes to apply for a LMIA in the high wage stream. She advises she has posted job ads in the following places: Indeed, Globe & Mail, Canadian Civil Engineer Magazine, Kijii, and various community centres. What critical place is she missing? a) Reddit IT bulletin board b) Library c) Universities career fairs d) Job bank Sources: Chantal Desloges & Cathryn Sawicki, Canadian Immigration and Refugee Law: A Practitioner's Handbook (Toronto: Emond, 2023), chapter 5, section II, subsection A 4 Jane runs a busy translation agency and has 10 staff working for her, consisting of 8 Canadians, 1 permanent resident and 1 person on an open work permit. Her last LMIA was approved 20 months ago, and she now is ready to submit a new one as she has recently acquired some new contracts and there is a shortage of qualified personnel for the positions. She has advertised extensively in Canada and has had two people, who are in Canada, as visitors apply. Both are qualified for the job. Jane wonders what she needs to show to verify the business and job offer(s) are legitimate. a) She must provide translation contracts and proof of advertising. b) She may need to provide letters of employment to the two foreign nationals. c) She may be exempted from having to provide some documents because she has had a positive LMIA within the last two years. d) None of the above 5 Jeffrey wishes to hire 2 speciality cooks to work in his restaurant in Vancouver. The wage he plans to pay is $23.00 per hour. You conduct a wage review and discover that the prevailing wage for the position is $17.00/hr and the provincial/territorial median is $25.00/hr. Will the rate Jeffrey offers going to be an issue? a) No, because Jeffrey is required to pay an hourly wage between $17.00 and $25.00 and since he's offering $23.00, there will be no issue b) No, because Jeffrey is required to pay 10 percent beyond the noted median wage and since the median hourly wage is $17.00, he won't have any issues as $23/hr is beyond 10% of $17.00 c) No because the proffered hourly rate is more than the prevailing wage for the position. d) Yes, because while Jeffrey's proffered rate is acceptable for the BC median wage, it does not meet national minimum wage.
