hi! Is there anybody here in the forum who can help me with my problem? I came here in canada as non-skilled worker (food attendant) and now i am planning to move to the live-in caregiver program because i am eligible to apply. I have all my credentials with me like working in a nursing home for 2 years and having a bachelor of science in nursing in my country. I have already an employer with contract and LMO. I applied for work permit inside canada and i already received my work permit today. However, my friend told me that I sis the wrong way of applying my work permit. I should have applied outside canada like NY. Can anyone has an idea about my case? Thank you so much!! Hope to hear from you guys soon! :(

Hi,

If you got the work permit why worry? TWP applications outside Canada are for first time work permit applicants. I guess nothing to worry at all :)

Hi buleg! Thank you for that however the work permit i have now is i cant apply for PR in the future because its like its not under the live-in caregiver program because i applied it inside canada. The right way to do it is to apply outside canada for me to be under the LCP program. Its so confusing.. I dont know why i need to apply outside canada when in fact im already here in canada.
