Good day,
Thank you for contacting the Immigration Representatives [requester] note that this mailbox is intended for general guidance and does not provide responses to case-specific
inquiries but have provided the following information as guidance. Ifyou have case specific questions about a file, you
are encouraged to submit the [RCC Web forrn.
Please see our response to your question,
Under the Home Care Worker Immigration pilots, applicants must complete at least six months of continuous, full-time work
experience in eligible NOCs.
The work experience must:
© * be continuous, meaning you must have worked at least 6 months in a row
© * Itmay include a reasonable vacation period (for example, 2 weeks of paid leave within a 52-week period).
© * Ifyou changed jobs, there must be no breaks between them.
© * be full-time, meaning at least 30 hours of paid work per week
© “Ifyou worked multiple part-time jobs at the same time, it only counts if it adds up to at least 30 hours per week for
6 months in a row.
If the required 6 months work experience is incomplete due to the passing of the care recipient (or any other reason), the
application may not meet the eligibility criteria as outlined and might be refused. The applicant may seek to gain eligible
experience from a new employer, as long as it meets all criteria. Note that any experience gained after applying doesn’t
count; as such, applicants must complete all of the required work experience before applying.
Please see here for more information regarding work experience requirements.
We trust that this information will assist you.
Thank you kindly,
[requester]

Dear [requester],
The new Home Care Worker Immigration Pilots” program is to open on March 31, 2025, for applicants working inside
[requester] would like to know how IRCC would deal with a situation where an applicant (to apply under this new pilot)
taking care of an elderly with disabilty/medical condition, is unable to complete the required work experience, due to the
passing of the elderly individual
This is a common concern for applicants who are providing care, inside Canada to elderly individuals, who are living
with serious morbidities.
Thank you for your guidance on this.
Best regards,
