Canada to Reduce Work Experience Requirements For Caregivers & Provide Pathways to Permanent Resident

 Canada to Reduce Work Experience Requirements For Caregivers & Provide Pathways to Permanent Resident





For decades, caregivers from abroad have played an invaluable role in supporting families in Canada. In recognizing their immense sacrifices, Canada has offered pathways to permanent residence in return.

 

On behalf of the Honourable Sean Fraser, Minister of Immigration, Refugees & Citizenship, members of Parliament Salma Zahid and Rechie Valdez today announced that the amount of work experience in Canada required for a caregiver to qualify for permanent residence is being reduced from 24 months to 12 months. In addition, some spaces under the existing caregiver pathways have been reserved for caregivers who already have work experience in Canada from previous work permits that they are able to apply for permanent residence. The change will be effective as of April 30, 2023 and will be retrospective for caregivers who have already applied.

 

As a result, caregivers and their families will benefit from a faster path to permanent residence and successfull settlement in Canada. By reducing the amount of work experience required in Canada. Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada(IRCC) also intends to improve processing and applications. This update is expected to benefit around 90% of applications currently in processing, an advantage for both the caregivers who are just starting out and those who have been providing care in Canada already.

 

As we approach the end date of the existing caregiver programs, we will continue to make any necessary changes to show our appreciation to the caregivers who help reduce some of the stress in the lives of Canadian families in need. Work is underway on the future of caregiver programming to plan for what comes next after the pilots conclude in 2024.
