I noticed in a thread you posted earlier in the year regarding experience acquiredin Canada as a PGWP Holder being eligible for
Interim Pathway for Caregivers.
My situation: I studied for 2 years in Canada. Obtained a 3 year PGWP last year. Expires in 23 months from now. I started working in a Elderly Home as a PSW since Sept 2018. I wasn't hired as a FT worker, but have worked FT hours as I will reach 1600 hours by September when the program will be reopened.
So I also had those questions:
1) Can PGWP work experience be eligible for the Interim Pathway for Caregivers?
2) Is the requirement 1560+ hours that they consider or is it literally having worked as a registered FT employee working at least 30+ hours per week?
Any insight would be greatly appreciated.
Hi,
To start with, I am not a immigration lawyer and this is my personal opinion.
Q1)
Interim pathway is closed so please forget about this pathway. Two new pathways are just open and check the eligibility. It doesn’t matter what types of work permit you have for the new pathways. I believe you can apply as long as you meet the eligibility.
Q2) I don’t know about what FT is. You can call CIC and ask this question to representative. I can’t really give this answer.
All the cases are different so there is no right answer. Good luck
