Canada Announces Home Care Worker Immigration Pilots For PR 2025
Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) has announced that new immigration pilots for home care workers will open on March 31, 2025.
These pilot programs will replace the previous permanent
residence (PR) pathways for caregivers, which have expired and will make it
easier for home care workers in home support or home child care to
- become
permanent residents
- find
work with a range of employers
There will be 2 streams:
- Workers
in Canada
- Applicants
not working in Canada
When the pilots open, the IRCC will only accept applications
for the Workers in Canada stream. The stream for applicants not
working in Canada will open at a later date.
Who is eligible
Applicants interested in working in Canada’s home care
sector will be eligible to apply when the pilots open if they:
- have a minimum of level 4 in English or French in the
CLB or NCLC
- have the equivalent of a Canadian high school diploma (or
higher)
- have at least 6 months of recent and relevant work
experience or a related caregiver training credential
- have an offer for a full-time home care job
A labour market impact assessment is not required.
