Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) has announced new & enhanced Caregiver pilot programs. The new programs will replace the existing Home Child Care Provider Pilot and Home Support Worker Pilot programs.

Who is eligible?

Candidates interested in working in Canada’s home care sector will be eligible to apply through these programs if they meet the following criteria:

  • Have a minimum Canadian Benchmark Level (CLB) of 4.
  • Have an equivalent of a Canadian high school diploma.
  • Have relevant work experience in recent years.
