How to apply for PR under NEW Caregiver Program

[alexfaraon]

Hi everyone
Can you please suggest me if we have to pay Right of permanent residency fees online or we can pay on same day when interview date is schedule and how long does it take to get interview date.
Thank you.

Hi!

It's up to you. You can pay either online or on the interview, both methods are valid. But please keep in mind, that on the interview they accept only credit cards (not cash and not cheques). If you choose online payment, you must take your receipt with you on the interview. Also you must pay at least 3 days before the interview (it's stated in the CIC interview appointment letter). If you didn't have time to pay 3 days before the interview, you must pay on the interview then.

To get an interview appointment letter depends on where you live, or in other words where your interview will take place. Where must it be?

We had been waiting for the interview in Etobicoke for 6 weeks. After 6 weeks my wife got an email with the scheduled time. And the interview was scheduled for 2 weeks, so the whole time was 8 weeks...
So I would suggest - be patient )) Etobicoke is one of the busiest CIC centres...

You shouldn't worry about the interview itself. As my wife told me, and as I've read reviews here on the forum from other people - it's just 5 minutes procedure. An officer shows you the Confirmation Of Permanent Residence and asks to check if the information is correct. Be careful and check your name and date of birth and passport number. Then an officer asks you to sign the CORP and that's all.

Hi!

It's a standard email, we've got the same. No need to worry, you application is in process. Just check your email and your husband's email - if CIC needs some additional documents, they will contact you or your husband via your or his email. We waited about 1.5 months after that email, until the final decision was made.

I applied for PR under high medical need class in September 2016. After 5 months in February 8, I received an email saying our application is complete, and immigration office at Etobicoke will contact for further....for an interview i think. my question is that, my husbands passport will expire in July 2017, 5 months left and if we get an interview call next month is it ok to go for the interview with this passport or should he have to renew his passport before that..... some people says your passport should be valid , but does it means it should be more than 6 months to expire,,,,

Where is he? Does he live in Canada now? Or he's in another country and needs to apply for a visa to go for an interview?

Thanks for your reply. I forget to mention that my husband is in canada with me. BUT his passport expires in july..we are expecting an interview call this month or next...do your have any idea about the passport validity requirement for an interview.

No, actually I don't know in this case. I know that they require a passport to be valid at least 6 months when they issue a visa. But in your case a visa is not required I think. You can call to CIC and ask them - I'm sure they will answer.

Please help me everybody...

I am applying as NOC.3233 for Caring people with high medical needs pathway. I am on PGWP which is about to expire in three months from now. Just confusing about the work experience requirement

the website says it should be 24 months of full time work. Each week should be at least 30 hours to be considered as full time.

I am a part-timer with two different jobs , some of the weeks I worked like 40 hours but sometimes I only worked like 22.5 hours per week. How do I calculate my hours??? I have total hours of 3800hr in the past two years. Someone told me for the week that I worked for less than 30 hours would not be counted as my work experience...

Please give me some clues... Appreciate it !!
