They were until that portal got shut down. That has gone back to paper, but it used to be. We lost all of our historical data on caps and all the information we had. It was down for service and then it never came back up. We had to revert back to paper on the LMIA process. It was not a big deal, but it just took a while to.... You just assumed the website was going to go back up.
It was a portal. You could upload all the information. It was very efficient. You could track how it was being processed, the timelines, and the whole bit. But with this piece, there are 15 steps before you can make the application. You have to get the nomination from the province to begin with, and then you have to submit all this and get the endorsement from the province. I've had it in to the province for a month and sometimes it's still not even approved.
