Build a Canada work-permit strategy for the applicant under IRPR R200 based on the answers I gave you. §1 — STREAM ELIGIBILITY DECISION Test each stream the applicant qualifies for and rule out the rest with one-line reasoning: (a) LMIA-supported work permit (R200(1)(c)(iii)) — high-wage / low-wage / Global Talent Stream / Recognised Employer / agricultural / caregiver streams (b) LMIA-exempt under R204 (international agreements) — CUSMA professional / trader / investor / intra-company transferee; CETA / CPTPP equivalents (c) LMIA-exempt under R205 (Canadian interests) — significant benefit (C10), intra-company transferee (C12), Mobilite Francophone (C16), reciprocal employment (C20), spousal OWP (C41/C42 / SOWP) (d) LMIA-exempt under R207 — permanent residence applicants (e.g. bridging open work permit under A75) (e) PGWP under R205(a)/(c) — post-graduation work permit for PGWP-eligible DLI graduates (f) International Experience Canada (R205(b)) — country-specific, India is NOT a partner country directly (g) Open work permit — spousal (R205(c)(ii)), vulnerable worker (R207.1) §2 — RECOMMENDED PRIMARY PATHWAY (60-80 words) Name the recommended stream + Plan B. If LMIA-supported, name the LMIA sub-stream (high-wage / low-wage / GTS / RE). §3 — EMPLOYER-SIDE COMPLIANCE For LMIA path: (a) Job Bank prevailing wage for NOC + province — show the math (b) Advertising requirements — Job Bank + 2 additional methods + 4-week minimum (verify current ESDC requirements) (c) Transition plan (low-wage stream) or LMIA exemption fee + processing fee CAD 1,000+ (d) Employer compliance review history For LMIA-exempt path: (a) Offer of Employment via IRCC Employer Portal + employer-compliance fee CAD 230 (b) Specific R204 / R205 / R206 / R207 / R208 sub-paragraph + qualifying conditions §4 — APPLICANT-SIDE COMPLIANCE (a) R200(1) tests — genuine offer, ability to perform the work, leave at end of authorised stay (b) R200(3) — under-qualified ground (officer can refuse if applicant cannot perform the work) (c) R200(5) — language ability requirement where applicable §5 — THE 3 HIGHEST-ROI LEVERS BEFORE LODGING Rank what would move odds most for THIS applicant. Examples: switch the LMIA stream from low-wage to high-wage by negotiating wage above provincial median; pivot from LMIA to GTS Category B if NOC is on the Global Talent Occupations List; pursue ICT via R205(a) instead of LMIA; secure spousal OWP first and apply for PR through EE without bridging LMIA. §6 — ACTION PLAN (next 30 / 60 / 90 days) Concrete checklist with form codes and processing times: (a) IMM 1295 (work permit application) or IMM 5710 (in-Canada work permit application) (b) IMM 5645 (family information) (c) Biometrics + medical exam (d) Employer-side: ESDC LMIA application OR IRCC Employer Portal Offer of Employment §7 — CITATIONS Anchor each recommendation to IRPR section (R200, R203 employer compliance, R204-R208 LMIA exemptions, R205(c)(ii) SOWP), IRCC Operational Manual (FW 1 / OP 11), ESDC LMIA stream-specific instructions, and relevant Memorandum of Understanding (CUSMA Annex, CETA Annex, etc.). — DRAFT only. For RCIC review. Verify all NOC mapping, prevailing-wage figures, processing times, and current LMIA / LMIA-exempt fees against the live ESDC and IRCC websites before relying on this for filing.
