Through the Temporary Foreign Worker Program (TFWP), you might be able to work for an employer who has a positive labor market impact assessment (LMIA) as a home support worker (NOC 44101) or home child care provider (NOC 44100). Currently, Canada processes work permit applications for caretakers more quickly.
Only home support workers and those who offer child care at home are covered by this program. Follow the standard procedures through a work permit for employment in Canada if you wish to work as a caregiver in another capacity.
Application process: LMIA based work permit
One of the following must apply to you: – You are living outside Canada and you will work in Quebec. – You are: – A current study or work permit holder. – You’re allowed to work in Canada without a work permit. – You plan to work in Quebec and you’re eligible to apply for a work permit from within Canada.
You cannot apply to this scheme if: – You apply for a work permit from outside Canada and aspire to work outside Quebec. – You apply for a work permit at a port of entry. – You’re in Canada as a visitor.
