Canada HCWP – Caregiver Pathway to Permanent Residency
Canada’s Home Child Care Provider Pilot and Home Support Worker Pilot (HCWP) are dedicated pathways that allow caregivers to build a future in Canada while addressing the growing demand for childcare and home support services. These programs connect qualified caregivers with Canadian families who require assistance in caring for children, seniors, or individuals with medical needs.
Applicants with a valid job offer in caregiving and relevant work experience can apply for permanent residency through HCWP, often benefiting from a smoother process tailored to their profession. The pilots also provide added support to help caregivers and their families integrate successfully into Canadian communities.
HCWP is ideal for candidates who wish to settle in Canada while pursuing meaningful careers in caregiving. With its structured pathway and strong focus on family support, HCWP offers a reliable route to employment, permanent residency, and eventually Canadian citizenship.
