With the start of the new pilot program 2024, Canada’s immigration system is changing. The goal of the program is to make it easier for temporary residents to become permanent residents. As part of the 2024–2026 Immigration Levels Plan, this project aims to make it possible for more than 15,000 caregivers to become permanent residents.
As of April 30, 2024, nearly 5,700 caregivers and their family members have already transitioned to permanent residency since the launch of the Home Child Care Provider Pilot and the Home Support Worker Pilot in 2019.
