  • Meet the language level of 5 in English or French
  • Meet the indicated education requirement
  • Are admissible to Canada

  • Able to demonstrate genuine, meaning there’s a real need to hire you

The job you have obtained must be included in the National Occupational Classification (NOC) job that matches the pilot you apply for:

Home child care provider (NOC 4411): 

  1. Capable of providing care for children below 18 years old in your own residence or in your employer’s residence
  2. You may not have to live in your employer’s home to become eligible
  3. Experience as a foster parent is not a criteria

Home support worker (NOC 4412)

3. Capability For The Work

4. Language Levels

The ability to take a language test in order to prove you meet the minimum language skills is important. To measure your communication skills in the English language or French language, we use:

  • Canadian Language Benchmarks (CLB) for English language test
  • Niveaux de compétence Linguistique canadiens (NCLC) for the French language test

Requirements for the lowest language skill are CLB 5 in English or NLCL 5 in French for all 4 language skills which include: writing, reading, listening, and speaking.

5. Education

You are expected to have finished post-secondary education credentials of at least 1 year in Canada. See Cheap Canadian Universities Where You Can Study. However, if you don’t have a Canadian education credential, you are required to get your foreign education credentials evaluated in order to show its equivalence to a completed Canadian post-secondary education credential of at least 1 year.

6. If You Have Current Work In Canada

As long as you’re working in Canada as a Caregiver but can’t qualify for the requirements for either of the pilot program, you may be eligible to extend your work permit. However, your employer in Canada must complete some steps before you will be able to apply to extend your work permit.
