Home Care Worker Immigration Pilot 03/31/25

Processing for these applications tend to take years.

years as in more than 1-2 years? that sounds terribly slow
Do you know what happens if we no longer employ our care giver at that time we are not sure if we will need a caregiver after another year or so. It seems very unfair to keep someone waiting for that long for a PR after they have met the requirements of the program

Yes can be longer than 1-2 years. The whole program is a disaster and also filled with fraud. They still haven’t finished the previous program so tough to predict this one especially with smaller PR quotas in general.

If I come to Canada with a three-year work permit through the SUV program, can I switch to a study permit to study nursing and obtain a license? If, by any chance, the SUV program immigration fails, I will then apply through the EE channel.

SUV is a PR program. You cannot switch to a study permit. You need LOA, PAL, funds etc. and have SUV work permit makes no difference. You need to justify why you cannot take nursing in home country.
