Dear Home Support Workers, Home Child-Care Workers, and Employers,
Big news is coming our way in Canadian immigration that IRCC says is going to make it way easier for caregivers and home support workers to stick around for good. Minister Miller has dropped hints that new pilot programs for Home Support Workers and Home Child Care Providers are on the horizon (soon to be announced in Fall of 2024), and they’re all about making the road to permanent residency smoother and simpler for these super important jobs.
The government has clued in on how much home support workers and child care providers mean to Canadian families and our whole society. They’re cooking up these new pilot programs to really get what Canadians need: more flexibility, fewer hoops to jump through, and a straight shot to permanent residency.
If you’re a home support worker dreaming of a future in Canada, things are looking up. The Minister has hinted that these new pilot programs are going to lay out a clear path to permanent residency right from the get-go. You can concentrate on your crucial work and building your life here, knowing you’ve got a solid plan to become a full-fledged member of the Canadian family.
Employers, you’re in for a treat, too. These changes are set to make your life easier when it comes to hiring and keeping the rockstar professionals who take care of your loved ones.
We’re still on the edge of our seats for all the nitty-gritty details of these pilot programs, but one thing’s for sure: the government’s has something planned to announce in Fall 2024 about an “enhanced” Home Support Worker and Home Child Care Worker Pilot!
Keep your eyes peeled for more info, and don’t worry – I’ll be right here to help you navigate this exciting path to finding the perfect Home Support Worker and/or Home Child Care Provider!
Until then, take care!
