What you do, where you go on your days off should not be an issue. If the week ends are your days off, then you can go where you want to.
Hi guys! I'm a new live-in caregiver here in BC. Just wanna know if somebody knows about this. Is it true that after 6 months of my stay here can my employer already apply me for a permanent resident? I heard this from our overseas worker welfare administration office in our country. I hope somebody can infos about this.

Hi,
You should have asked the name of the program. Is there a possibility for you to get in touch with anybody who's from there? This would greatly benefit a lot of caregivers who're slugging it out waiting for two years to be able to apply for permanent residency. Here's what the write up say:
Applying for permanent residence in Canada
You must complete at least two years of employment as a live-in caregiver to apply for permanent residence in Canada. You must have completed these two years of employment within three years of your arrival in Canada. The two-year requirement does not include any extended time away from Canada. For example, if you go away on vacation for three months, that time will not be included as part of the two years of employment. In some countries, you may need to reapply for a temporary visitor visa before you return to Canada. If you leave Canada for more than one year or if your work permit has expired, you will have to reapply to the overseas visa office to return to Canada under the Live-in Caregiver Program. You are free to leave the program and return permanently to your home country at any time. However, you should give adequate notice to your employer.
If you apply to stay in Canada, you must complete an application for permanent resident status. You can obtain an application guide by contacting the CIC Call Centre or by visiting the CIC Web site. You must prove that you have worked as a full-time live-in caregiver for two years. As proof of your employment, you can use a statement of earnings or T4 slips and any other documentation that would help to prove your work record. If you have changed jobs since your arrival in Canada, you should have a record of employment from each of your former employers. You will not have an ROE for your present job. If you have used your ROEs to apply for Employment Insurance, HRCC staff can provide you with copies.
Your application for permanent residence in Canada will not be assessed on the basis of your financial situation, skills upgrading in Canada, volunteer work, marital status or the number of family members you have in your country of origin. However, you could be found ineligible for permanent residence if you, your spouse or common-law partner, or any of your family members have a criminal record or a serious medical problem.
Your application for permanent residence could be cancelled if you misrepresented your education, training or experience to the visa officer when you first applied under the program.

Any update on your application?
Hi
Do you have any dependents? Looks like 6 months for first stage approval (OWP) is the trend.
Hi!
No, I do not have dependents on my application. Before I applied, I already saw the PR processing time under LCP and it was 6months for the first stage approval. I suppose mine got approved a month earlier since I applied with no dependents though I'm not sure. CIC call center agents always say its a case-to-case basis
Actually, I am wondering how long the whole process might take.
Hope ellla could update this thread.
