The LMIA applications are generally required to have a transition plan. The transition plan is needed from the second application request for the given occupation and the location. Under the Quebec facilitated process, no transition plan is required for the first application of an occupation for a specific location.

The wages of the temporary foreign workers must be equivalent to those paid to the Canadians and permanent residents.

Suppose an accumulated agreement covers the position. In that case, the employer has to pay the rate mentioned in the agreement and provide the benefits offered to the Canadians and Permanent Residents.

Quebec employers are looking to hire Temporary foreign workers lower than a median hourly wage and must obey the stream of high-wage positions requirements.
