How much does Caregiver immigration programs cost and how long does it take?

Government fees and processing times can change and may differ by stream, country and family size. Confirm the live fee and processing-time controls on www.canada.ca immediately before paying or planning a deadline.

Practical order

1. 1

   Open the current IRCC caregiver landing page and record that the listed permanent Home Care Worker and earlier caregiver immigration pilots are marked Closed.

2. 2

   If the goal is temporary caregiver work, follow the separate IRCC temporary-work link and the applicable employer/work-permit process rather than starting a closed permanent pilot case.

3. 3

   For a caregiver application submitted while a former program accepted cases, retain the original program guide, submission, AOR, forms, evidence and every IRCC message under that historical case.

4. 4

   For an existing submitted case, respond to account requests and decisions by their stated dates and obtain qualified help for complex status or fairness issues.

5. 5

   Recheck the IRCC caregiver page for a formally announced open intake and obtain the new guide and checklist before preparing any future permanent application.
