Application Process
Step 1: Choose a Province or Territory Research and select the province or territory that aligns with your skills, experience and goals. Each has its own PNP streams with unique criteria.
Step 2: Submit an Expression of Interest (EOI) Submit an Expression of Interest (EOI) to the chosen province or territory. This is a preliminary application that indicates your interest in being nominated.
Step 3: Receive a Nomination Invitation If your EOI is selected, you will receive an invitation to apply for a provincial nomination.
Step 4: Apply for Provincial Nomination Complete and submit the provincial nomination application along with all required documents. This may include proof of work experience, education, language proficiency and other supporting materials.
Step 5: Apply for Permanent Residence Once nominated, you can apply for permanent residence through Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC). This involves submitting your nomination certificate and other required documents.
Application Process
Step 1: Initial Consultation Schedule an initial consultation with our immigration consultants to assess your needs and determine the eligibility of both the employer and the caregiver.
Step 2: Document Preparation Our team will assist you in preparing all necessary documents, including the employment contract, proof of financial capacity, and the caregiver’s qualifications and medical examination.
Step 3: Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA) We will help you apply for a positive LMIA from Employment and Social Development Canada (ESDC). This step is crucial as it demonstrates the need for a foreign caregiver.
Step 4: Work Permit Application Once the LMIA is approved, we will guide the caregiver in applying for a work permit. This includes preparing the application package and ensuring all documents meet immigration requirements.
Step 5: Arrival and Integration After the work permit is granted, we will provide support to ensure a smooth transition for the caregiver, including travel arrangements, orientation and integration into the family and community.
