Interim Pathway for caregivers 2021

“Canada is welcoming 6,000 caregivers by the end of 2021”

The Home Child Care Provider and Home Support Worker pilots were started in 2019. These pathways to PR for guardians offer occupation-explicit work permits, instead of employer explicit work licenses. This implies caregivers don't need to stay attached to one employer as long as they are as yet working in their occupation. Around 2,900 guardians and their relatives became permanent inhabitants in 2020.

What is the Caregivers eligibility for new immigration programs?

Caregivers who are as of now in Canada could likewise have the chance to apply for PR through the PR pathway for caregivers.
Beginning May 6, Canada will acknowledge 30,000 new PR occupants with one year of work experience in fundamental occupations. Caregiver occupations, NOC 4411 and 4412, are viewed as qualified occupations under this new program.
