Major restructuring of job offer requirements for FSW selection factor points. As of November 3, 2026: LMIA is no longer required; job offers can be for new positions or with new employers; assessment now focuses on employer legitimacy and offer genuineness rather than LMIA status. All four previous "Situation" pathways have been eliminated and replaced with unified assessment criteria. This removes eligibility barriers for candidates without LMIA-backed offers.

Navisa is an AI file-prep engine for Canadian immigration firms. It reads the documents on a file, cross-checks them, runs the eligibility analysis against retrieved official sources, and flags what an officer would — citations attached. It does not replace the judgment of a licensed immigration professional; a consultant reviews and approves the work.
Navisa Prep is document-preparation software for individuals — cited comparisons and options, never advice. The Navisa platform is the case engine for licensed firms.
