I have my aunt visiting on a visitor visa and am wondering if while she is here I can apply for her to be a live-in caregiver? I would like her to care for my son when I go back to work in 5 mths....???? Has anyone done something like this before.....I know I can extend her visa but I would like a more permanent solution since I would like her to take care of my son until he is of school age.

So you need a PR (or a work permit)....

After you decide, then post this either in the PR or Work subforums.
Good luck!

It's not that simple. Have a look here http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/work/caregiver/apply-who.asp.
She must have the required experience or education and you would need to obtain an LMIA, Labour Market Impact Assessment, in order to hire her.

Yes I have reviewed the eligibility criteria and I think we would be eligible with the exception of the required experience. She has never worked as a live-in caregiver in the past 3 years however she has worked as a principal of a school for small children back home for many many years and I'm not sure if that would qualify.

Hi
Not yet, Kenney was discussing that this is an area that will be part of the on-going review of the LCP. He was quoted that 70% of the LCPs from the Philippines had LMOs for relatives, which he said didn't seem to meet the objectives for the program.
