"tourist wanting to live in canada permanently"
 
   hi. im a bs pscyhology graduate from the philippines. i arrived in canada may 29th of this year. an employer is willing to sponsor me to work as a live-in caregiver but i didnt enroll in any caregiver program back home. i learned from a friend that a certificate is not needed if one is a graduate of bs psychology. is this true? can i enroll in any caregiver course while i'm here? also, i used to work as a personnel assistant for more than a year. will i be qualified if i apply for an independent immigrant status instead?

   It is not necessarily the case that a caregiver program must be undertaken. Candidates would otherwise need to provide (a) evidence of the equivalent of a Canadian secondary school education; (b) proof of six moths training in the field OR 12 months prior related experience; (c) proof of sufficient English or French language abilities; (d) a valid and subsisting passport; (e) and a police certificate.

If these needs are met, the application must first be processed through a local Human Resources Development Canada (HRDC) office, where the validity of the offer is verified, and the impact on the local job market assessed. The employer would also be required to obtain a Revenue Canada Taxation number. The Canadian employer would generally be required to provide evidence that a search for a Canadian candidate had been held, and had failed.

The stages of the application process are, therefore, as follows:

1. Documentation of a search for a Canadian candidate locally by the prospective employer;
2. Application for validation through HRDC;
3. If approved, application for employment authorization under the Live-in-Caregiver program;
4. After two years, application for permanent residence from within Canada for the employee, if he/she so wishes.
