Temporary Foreign Worker Program: Owner Operator/LMIA - Update
As of April 1, 2021, the Temporary Foreign Worker Program (TFWP) will remove special processing instructions for the “owner/operator” category.
These changes are part of regular policy reviews to ensure that the TFWP
continues to work within its intended purpose, and
is only used by employers to fill a position when qualified Canadians or Permanent Residents are not available.
