Caregiver
Many Canadian families are looking for experienced caregivers to look after their children or elderly parents. Caregivers are often given pathways to transition to a permanent resident status due to their indispensable contribution to the Canadian society. The current immigration programs allow the caregivers to come on a two-year occupation specific open work permit. Once the two-year period is completed, they can apply for PR for themselves and the entire family.
The following are Canada’s existing immigration programs for caregivers.
Interim Pathway for Caregivers
The Interim Pathway for Caregivers is a temporary program running from March 4th to June 4th, 2019. Foreign caregivers with Canadian experience will be able to apply for permanent resident status. The program allows individuals with Canadian work experience as home child care providers or home support workers to apply for permanent resident status.
