Canadian immigration lawyer Josh Schachnow chats with other Canadian immigration professionals about the latest updates, news and key topics on the Canadian Immigration Pros Podcast! In this episode, Josh talks to Steven Paolasini about: - issues around Labor Market Impact Assessments (LMIAs): fraudulent LMIAs, where job offers are sold, exploiting immigrants seeking to extend their stay in Canada - solutions to make the immigration process smoother, like removing the 50 LMIA points from arranged employment, and increasing penalties for violations. - how the immigration process could be simplified with technology and AI, with the future potentially involving more application reviews and less full application management by consultants/lawyers - public policies and how they complicate the immigration process, causing inconsistency and backlogs in processing applications. - a model in which aspiring immigrants prepare and submit their own application, with consultants/lawyers reviewing and providing feedback. This model empowers the immigrant, reduces administrative work for consultants/lawyers, and brings down costs - challenges in the healthcare field: the difficulty for foreign-trained healthcare professionals to work in Canada due to certification and recertification issues - why making the LMIA process easier and giving more power to provinces to decide which occupations are most in demand could lead to major improvements in the system and more!
