I don't know about the other stuff, but you can buy condoms here too :-) :-)

Yep, it would be a TRV ( work permit). Thanks for the reply!

My Live-In caregiver's flight lands in Montreal ( even though she is working on Ontario) and we are driving to pick her up there. Will landing in Quebec be a problem immigration wise????

Yes as the person above mentions, if your employer is on holidays while you arrive to Canada, be sure you have the contact number to call them when you arrive in Canada. The immigration officer will likely telephone your Employer to verify your contract and check. Make sure you have a way to...

You shouldn't have to sign anything right at the airport upon your arrival to Canada. Your work contract should be already signed before you come as it is used to apply for your visa at the Canadian Embassy in your country. All your documents should be prepared as part of your visa application...

Not too sure, but contact the Canadian Canadian Caregiver's Association and they can tell you.. http://www.cca-acaf.ca/

Maybe it depends on which embassy she is applying from?, but both times, my caregivers under the LCP had to show it too.

Re: Is this true? Caregivers in Canada may no longer apply for permanent residen I don't think there is such thing as a "free" visa to canada????????????? And if you come here, unless you are staying with family or friends , you will have to find a place to live and pay rent.

Yes, on her side she may have to show how much money she has in the bank ( bank statements) or proof of property ownership. They are looking for ties that would make her want to return to her home country after her job here.

I can see on the CIC website that it says to include info on length of stay and where the invited person is staying in the letter of invitation. However, what else will I need? Do I need to show my pay stubs or notice of assessment to prove my income too? My friend invited her mom as a visitor...

Thanks PMM!!! So here is another question.....If I find a candidate that is currently here as a LIC, but her contract/visa is about to expire, does she have to leave Canada and come back to obtain her new visa under her new LMO/contract?

Does over 1 year's work as a school teacher to children ( any age) qualify as work experience for the Live- In Caregiver program? I am just wondering if I have candidates who have the proof of paid experience as a school teacher, if this will be ok? Or does it have to be specifically nanny...

Is the max for a tourist visa 6 months? Even if she does not end up as my caregiver, I would love to host her in Canada for a few months as a tourist as we have gotten to know her well. What are her chances of getting a tourist visa once she was rejected for the work visa, will that appear...

ps....I am in Ottawa, anyone know of a Nanny course here? This way I can provide accommodations. I just checked the net quickly and didn't see anything.

Good question LEON, I will ask her if there is anything that is 6 months long and associated costs....but this still obviously does not guarantee a visa and I need a nanny sooner as I am returning to my public servant position this fall :-( So honestly here BC guy and LEON, if I re-apply for...

BC guy, Would she need a student or travel visa for this? I wonder what her chances are of even getting that since she was denied?

I think so. Does one have to take a specific nanny course? I really thought her degree would be enough :-( Anyways, wish me luck, I am going to re-apply for her , don't know if it will help, but all I can do is try.

Here is the reason they gave below. We have called the embassy to request an interview so she can discuss her education in detail, however, no human being answers just a message that says to Fax or Email inquires and a response will be within 21 days! Accordingly, your application is...

Is this really a possible reason to be over- qualified? I emailed Jason Kenney ( Minister of CIC) and my MP, but I doubt I will hear anything back personally from him :-) I am going to re-apply and have her sign the 'Use of a Representative Form". I also looked into a nanny agency helping with...

Really? Why not? Here is part of the curriculum for her degree, she had 4 teaching internships with preschool and them from ages 7-14 years old. I don't want to give up :-( Pedagogical faculty 050103 – “Pedagogy and Psychology”, assigning qualification of Bachelor of Pedagogy and Psychology...
