How to apply for PR under NEW Caregiver Program

[espasol]

I got my approval letter via email on January 15,2015 and landing interview on January 27,2015. On the interview day they will give your copr and stamp your passport. After 6-8weeks you will get your pr card.

what is that stamp on your passport, is that the immigrant visa, same as your dependents will have in the Philippines? thanks for your patience.

Congrats!! Just want to ask if how many months did you got/prepare for your education assessment and language test?

as for me, for the language test, I chose IELTS, you just go to the website of British council and check the available schedule and venue, just follow the instruction online because it will direct you to payment and all. For the education assessment, there are institutions to choose in the immigration website but I will chose this http://www.wes.org/ca/fswp/, as it says, it will took 20 days for them to process from the time you file your application. I will be filing for my PR on Aug so I had my ielts for the meantime and ECA to be followed this May.

Hi, how long did you wait for your PR card from the day of your interview? Is it possible to go outside canada only with your visa stamp on your passport inorder to enter Canada again in the event that you can't anymore wait for your PR card to be on hand? I am planning to file on Aug and hope to go home by the end of November. I may be wanted to purchase airline ticket ahead of time since Dec is a peak season or if I decide to buy late, then I may be run out of ticket. Thanks.

No, you should be here under live in caregiver program and should complete the 2 months work experience.

good day to all
i would just l;ike to ask for your opinion
I'm the employer, when i applied the LMIA last year i still used the old forms, then we got approved. The LIC that were hiring applied last march using also the older forms, not the updated ones (new pathway forms). When he passed the application via VFS they did not say anything about the forms, but I'm just confused and worried that the LIC sent the wrong forms.

If the VO needed an updated form they will return the application and request that a new form be submitted.

I just want to ask, what if in the event that you already submitted your application for live in caregiver (new pathway) and the immigration found out that you failed to meet the requirements, is the processing fee refundable? Thank you.

The processing fee is not refundable

Hi! Did you also submit an application for an Open Work permit the same time you submitted your PR application under the new pathway? I understand you can do that if you apply for PR under the Live-in Caregiver program.
