I can't express enough how appreciative I am of Canadian Intellectual Courts for taking my family through our difficult case until we are now Permanent Residents. James was so down to earth and easy to talk to all the time even when I was not calm, he was calm kind, and assuring. Ash, you are amazing, efficient, thorough, and always accessible. Canadian Intellectual Courts is lucky to have someone like you who never procrastinates. If the phone rings and you don't get him that means he is not near the phone but he will definitely return your call. Canadian Intellectual Courtswill make the effort to take your case to the end I can assure you if they can, no one else can. Thank you, James, and your wonderful team.

We are a family of 3, half way around the world who got BC PNP nomination in 3 months, received our work visas within 6 months and became Permanent Residents in 18 months. James, Andrea and Terri, and the whole team are all professionals, courteous, understanding, super responsive, have THE great knowledge and are truly AMAZING. Glad I took the leap and entrust Canadian Intellectual Courts SERVICES everything. I have to mention that our transactions were done just by E-mail! Don't hesitate to TRUST James, TRUST Canadian Intellectual Courts SERVICES. We can never thank you enough James.

I would definitely recommend Canadian Intellectual Courts. Ash was very understanding and listened to all my concerns and took his time to explain everything to me in detail. Everyone at Canadian Intellectual Courtsis very informative and knows what they're doing. Very professional and easy to reach. If you want an easy-to-follow immigration process, Canadian Intellectual Courtsis the way to go!

Stephanie Huff

James and the staff at Canadian Intellectual Courtswere very helpful and professional throughout our entire process. They have payment plans available so that you aren't paying one large sum at once, with reasonable terms. James was available by phone or e-mail anytime I had a question regarding our permit and was always very kind in answering my questions. I highly recommend using Canadian Intellectual Courtsservices to ensure you have smooth entry into Canada.

Joshua Korten

Last year my wife, Hannah, had to go through the immigration process after our wedding. We found James and the team at Canadian Intellectual CourtsÂ to be very professional, knowledgeable, and efficient. On more than one occasion James gave us good advice, extra documentation for travels, and calmed our nerves when we weren't sure if we had all the papers/following all the rules, etc. Yes, you have to pay for their services. But the peace of mind(especially in these weird times) knowing that your loved ones' immigration process is safe and sound in their hands is absolutely worth it. Will be having many more conversations with them in the future as the In Laws now need some direction with immigration :)

Mohit Mehta

He is the best of best! Professional, courteous, knowledgeable. I highly recommend Canadian Intellectual Courts.

I can't thank the people at Canadian Intellectual Courts enough for their help over the last two years. They made the process easy and effortless. I can't recommend Canadian Intellectual Courts enough especially Terri and James who were the most helpful and understanding throughout everything. The best decision I made hiring the services of this team to help me gain my PR. I will definitely be seeking their help when it comes time to apply for citizenship.

Joshua Rowe

I'd like to say a huge thank you to both Webb James and Betsy Tse! I have been working with Betsy and James over the last 4 months, looking into all the possibilities of visa extension and PR and they have been incredibly helpful. Their knowledge of the system/process is amazing and I felt like I was in great hands! I have postponed the process for now but will definitely be returning to Canadian Intellectual Courtsin the future!

MAMA vs EMMA

When I found Canadian Intellectual Courts Services, It was my last resource. Canadian Intellectual Courtswas recommended to me by a friend who told me that at Canadian Intellectual CourtsI was going to be able to do my permanent residency and they were right. Even though they are located in Vancouver and I live in Surrey BC, I was able to email my case to the lawyers and right away they got back to me. Before I found Canadian Intellectual Courts, I had been to other immigration lawyers that said that there was nothing left for me to do and that I had to go back to my country. They were also asking for huge amounts of money to work on my case and they didn't have any guarantees. When I went to Canadian Intellectual Courts, right away they were extremely proactive and money was not brought up as an issue. They took genuine care of my case and treated my family and I with kindness. They never took advantage of us in monetary terms. The costs were reasonable and they helped us with every single little detail. We always felt like we were in good hands! canadianitellectualcourts successfully helped us with our LMIA, work permits, ETA's and permanent residency. They have also offered to assist us with our citizenship (when we are permitted to get one) We were so thankful a manageable payment plan was available to us to keep us from feeling overwhelmed. I can truly say that at Canadian Intellectual Courts, they are people that really care for others. When you are going through an immigration process, it's long and stressful and they always found a way that gave you hope. I really believe that things happen for a reason, and in this case, it was finding Canadian Intellectual Courts! They took on our case with a passion and because of their commitment, we were successful! I am forever grateful to James and his team for all their hard work. Without them, we would never of been able to continue our lives here in Canada. I highly recommend this company for any immigration matters. I assure you, you won't regret it! Nubia O. L.

Veraalida harahap

My husband and I had a rare situation. My husband applied for Canada permanent resident while he was in the USA and contacted Marshall Webb for assisting our case. During consultations with him were very great. He is very honest, friendly, and open for options. PR rules got changed and we became very nervous. The business manager, Ash Islam assisted us and handled our case very well. He's very helpful and never gave us a headache. He never failed to follow up the requirements we needed and responded promptly anytime we had any questions and concerns. We received our PR card we were so grateful we had Canadian Intellectual Courtsfor assisting us. We highly recommend Canadian Intellectual Courts, incredibly professional and knowledgeable.

Frequently Asked Questions

Who needs an LMIA in Canada?

Canadian companies looking to hire skilled workers from abroad require a Local Market Impact Assessment (LMIA). The LMIA process requires a Canadian company to justify the hiring of a foreign worker and its positive or neutral impact on the Canadian labour market.

Some job categories are exempt from needing an LMIA due to international agreements or industry exemptions, such as the International Mobility Program (IMP). Other exceptions include those coming to Canada as part of an intra-company transfer or on an open work permit.

How long does it take to process an LMIA application?

The processing time for an LMIA application depends on several factors, including the industry, the type of application, the location of the job in Canada, and the number of LMIA applications being processed at the time. Generally, processing times can range from a few weeks to several months if the candidate meets all the LMIA requirements.

What are the requirements for an LMIA?

The requirements for an LMIA generally involve several key components to ensure that the employment of a foreign worker will not adversely affect Canadian workers.

Proof of business legitimacy: Employers must provide documentation to prove that their business is legitimate and operates according to Canadian laws.
Job offer details: The employer must submit a detailed job offer that outlines the duties, wages, working conditions, and employment terms that comply with Canadian labour standards.
Recruitment efforts: Employers need to demonstrate that they have made significant efforts to recruit qualified Canadian workers (citizens or permanent residents) before seeking foreign nationals.
Wages and working conditions: The wages offered must meet or exceed the prevailing wage for the occupation in the region where the work will be performed. Working conditions must also meet the current standards set by Canadian employment laws.
Benefits to Canada: Employers may need to demonstrate how hiring a foreign worker will benefit the Canadian labour market and economy.
Compliance history: If the employer has hired foreign workers in the past, their compliance with previous LMIA terms and conditions may be reviewed.
Processing fee: There is a processing fee for each LMIA application, which must be paid by the employer.
