Hi, congratulation to your application. Hope everything will go smooth and quick.
Can I ask you couple questions :
1. Did you apply under new Child Care pathway despite of you were working all the time under live-in caregiver program ?
2. Can I apply for open work permit under new Child Care pathway (can I apply for OWP immediately once my PR application will be send or I have to wait till my recent work permit will be in the period of 3 months before expire) ?
3. Did you send PR application and OWP application in one envelop ?
Thank you soo much.
Thank you. I hope so too..cross fingers to that.
to answer yours questions;
1. No I didn't. Since I didn't changed employer, I just counted my hours worked from the time I started my employment under live-in caregiver.
2. I have no idea about how the new child care pathway works but try looking at cic website and see if you qualify for the new pathway. If you are a live in caregiver, you should have 3900hours worked or 24 months before you apply for OWP&PR. If your work permit expires before you reach your 3900hours or 24months of employment, you should apply for extension of work permit 3 months before it expires.
According to the Immigration Social worker, make sure you have a valid(Not expired/renewed) work permit before you submit your OWP/PR application..
3. Yes, I enclosed my OWP/PR in one envelope and sent it to Vegreville,AB..
I hope I answered your questions properly..
