              This chapter detailed the overseas processing of work permit applications under the provisions of the Live-in Caregiver Program (LCP). It also describes the manner in which the officers would need to process overseas applications for permanent residence from live-in caregivers’ family members who are living outside Canada.

It contains details about the procedures related to the in-Canada processing of applications for permanent residence from live-in caregivers as well.

               

              The Program Objectives

              Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC) came up with the Live-in Caregiver Program (LCP). It established this program to meet a labour market shortage of live-in caregivers in Canada. At the same time, it wanted to use this program to provide an avenue for individuals to work and eventually, apply for permanent residence from within Canada.

              The Live-in Caregiver Program (LCP) aims to bring qualified temporary workers to Canada for providing:

              • In-home child care
              • Senior home support care or,
              • Care of the disabled

              The Live-in Caregiver Program (LCP) enables applicants to apply for permanent residence from within Canada. However, these applicants would only be eligible to apply once they have been employed full-time as live-in caregivers for at least 24 months or a total of 3,900 hours in a minimum of 22 months within the four years immediately after their entry into Canada under the Live-in Caregiver Program (LCP).

               

              The Act and the Regulations

              The following table provides details on the legislation concerning the Live-in Caregiver Program (LCP).

              The definition of the live-in caregiver R2
              The live-in caregiver class R110
              Processing the applications R111
              The requirements for work permits R111, R112
              Permanent residence R113
              The requirements for family members R114
              The applicable times for conformity R115

               

              The table that follows lists the forms that the applicants would typically require when they apply for permanent residence under the Live-in Caregiver Program (LCP).

              The Application for Permanent Residence in Canada IMM 0008EGEN

               

              The Instruments and Delegations

              Section 6 of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act (IRPA) authorises the Minister to designate officers to carry out specific powers. It also enables the Minister to delegate certain authorities. In addition, there might be some ministerial authorities that the Minister might not be able to delegate. Such ministerial authorities would typically comprise authorities that relate to security certificates or national interest. Section 6 provides details on all such kinds of ministerial authorities that the Minister cannot delegate.

              In instrument IL 3 – Designation of Officers and Delegation of Authority, the Minister of Citizenship, Immigration and Multiculturalism has delegated powers. In the same document, the Minister has also designated the officials authorised for carrying out any purpose of any provisions, whether legislative or regulatory.
