[Willow05]

hi willow05 do you have aby idea if i can borrow my passport while im on my process for application. I applied 2weeks ago and I would like to go for a short vacacation. if its possible will i

You applied by paper? Or did you already send your passport because they requested it?

If it’s not an emergency, I would suggest to just keep it there. It could delay the process because they would need to rematch your passport to your application.

There's no set requirement as to income of employer for the new pathway. But they might ask for it from employer eventually to see if they can actually pay for caregiver.

As for salary of caregiver, depends on where you live, at least minimum wage. Can be higher if you want..

Child benefits doesn't have anything to do if you have a caregiver or not.

If the employer is an individual and not a company, does he/she have to have a CRA business number? In the imm5983e form there is a field for CRA business number. Thanks.

As per requirement, You don’t need to do the caregiver course but having it won’t hurt your application either.

Caregiver course was never a requirement even in the old program. I have been working as a case processor in an immigration firm for about 4 years and I have filed hundreds of applications without the caregiver course, it was never a problem.

Hello po @Willow05! I am planning to sponsor a caregiver under the new pathway, she's a graduate of Bachelor of Science in Education, currently taking masteral units, has no caregiver certificate but worked as a teacher for 1 school year. As you mentioned po, caregiver certificate was never a requirement even in the old program, but how about po in terms of work experience, do you think enough po un experience nya as a teacher for 1 school year. (which is technically from June - March) since wala sya caregiver certificate. Thank you po in advance.

Hello @Willow05
I also want to follow up about the requirements for the new home child care/caregiver program. If caregiver cert is not a requirement, should there be a related work experience para sa mga nag aapply for this program?
Also is it ok to hire a relative? I heard others are refused because of hiring a relative.

Thanks in advance
