Corporate Immigration Services for Canadian Employers
From LMIAs and the Global Talent Stream to intra-company transfers, employer-supported permanent residence, and compliance, RA Migration helps Canadian businesses hire, move, and retain global talent lawfully and on schedule. One licensed team, built for HR leaders, founders, and corporate counsel.
One partner for your entire global workforce
Hiring internationally touches recruitment, payroll, legal, and leadership at the same time. We give Canadian employers a single, regulated point of contact who maps the right pathway for each role, prepares defensible applications, and keeps your business onside with program conditions before and after a worker arrives.
Whether you are filling one specialized role, transferring a key executive, or building a long-term hiring strategy across provinces, we translate IRCC and ESDC requirements into a clear, practical plan your team can act on.
Who we work with
- HR and talent-acquisition teams hiring foreign workers.
- Founders and startups competing for specialized talent.
- Corporate counsel managing immigration risk and compliance.
- Employers transferring staff into Canadian operations.

A clear path from open role to approval
A structured engagement so your team always knows the plan, the timeline, and the next step.
1. Assess

2. Strategy
You receive a written plan: the recommended program, documents, realistic timelines, costs, and compliance obligations.
3. Prepare & File
We assemble and submit the application package where authorized and coordinate the worker's permit or PR step.
4. Comply
We help you meet ongoing wage, record-keeping, and inspection obligations after the hire is in place.

Employer immigration questions
We support Canadian employers across the full hiring lifecycle: LMIA applications, the Global Talent Stream, LMIA-exempt work permits, intra-company transfers and CUSMA, employer-supported permanent residence, and ongoing compliance, with one licensed RCIC as your point of contact.
No. Many roles qualify under the International Mobility Program through LMIA-exempt work permits, intra-company transfers, or CUSMA. We review the role, the worker, and your business before recommending whether an LMIA or an exempt route is the right path.
It depends on the program. LMIA and work-permit processing times are published by ESDC and IRCC and change regularly, and recruitment or advertising time is separate. We give you a realistic timeline for your specific pathway at the strategy stage.
The employer is. You must keep records and meet the wage, duties, and working-condition commitments tied to the job offer and program, and be ready for an IRCC or ESDC inspection. We help you build and maintain that compliance.
Yes. Through intra-company transfers and CUSMA, eligible executives, managers, and specialized-knowledge staff can often be transferred into a qualifying Canadian entity without an LMIA, provided the relationship and role requirements are met.
Often, yes. Employer-supported pathways such as Provincial Nominee Program employer streams and job offers that support Express Entry can help you retain valued staff long term. We map the most realistic PR route for the role.
