The client was job-matched to a restaurant in Saskatchewan and applied for an LMIA in a Food Service Supervisor position. The application was submitted on August 7, 2024 and approved on October 16, 2024, which the Korean write-up records as 40 business days.
The approval was under the Permanent Resident stream. The write-up compares the timeline with the 2024 average processing time of 100 business days reported by IRCC, and notes that the application was filed before the September 26 low-wage LMIA suspension took effect.
The write-up also gives background on Saskatchewan, describing it as a province where permanent residence can follow once the conditions the province sets are met, while noting that such regions tend to have less infrastructure.
