I've been to the site many times and I don't even recall seeing any statistics for this year. In fact I haven't seen any info beyond the April-June 2013 quarter.
My employer and I are hoping for a result this week. This is our 7th week of processing in Manitoba. Has anyone had any updates on their application?
This is my 4th week of waiting. My employer wrote the Canada Immigration because they need immediate care for their mother. The letter content is:
Temporary Foreign Worker Program

Attention: Member of Parliament ________________________
I am writing this letter in order to follow up with the Government of Canada, about hiring a Live in Caregiver for our elderly relative (_________). We had made an application several months ago and it was successful. We had hired a woman from the Philippines, who is living in Red Deer, Alberta. However, when we'd prepared to transport her to the workplace, she'd declined the job. This had left our family with a predicament of infinite proportion.
The number on the Work Permit is DD182 488 880, U508817895 issued in March 2014. The person’s name is_____________ Since the job was declined, we had to repeat the entire process of looking for a Nanny from the very beginning, meaning placing a local ad in Saskjobs, filing through the many applicants to see if anybody was local, then finally - finding someone appropriate from another country.
Please, be aware that this Nanny search and application process had taken a very longtime. We had once again applied for the process to commence in June of 2014. The paperwork had been sent back to us two times since ~ most recently on July 29/14. Our Immigration Consultant is not getting enough information from the Canadian Immigration office, to identify the inadequacy of the application. There is no file number attached to the emails or an agent’s name indicated. The consultant had attempted on many occasions and unsuccessfully to call the Toll Free number in order to address this situation. This application is now at a ‘stalemate’, so to say.
To put such a situation into perspective, please understand that our elderly relative, with Dementia is living at risk this whole time in her home. The caregivers are members of her community and are approaching the point of Caregiver burnout. This Nanny search is now becoming a crisis situation!
I am asking that my Member of Parliament of Canada please to follow up re: the process, as this application is now extremely URGENT. This is becoming a circumstance of basic survival.
Thank you for taking the time to consider the information within this letter.
