Leaving Canada
If you go on a vacation outside of Canada, you are not automatically deemed ineligible for permanent residence under the live-in caregiver program. However, it is important to note that if you leave Canada while your application is being processed, we cannot guarantee that you will be allowed to re-enter. Each time you re- enter Canada you will need to be re-assessed and meet all eligibility criteria for entering the country.

What happens next?
Medical exam
You, and all your family members who are not already Canadian citizens or permanent residents, must undergo and pass an immigration medical exam, even if your family members will not be processed for permanent residence with your application. Do not have an immigration medical exam until we contact you. We will provide instructions on medical exams after you send your application.

You will not be able to sponsor family members who do not undergo and pass a medical exam.

The decision on your application
If your application has been properly completed and includes all the required documents, you will receive a letter informing you of the decision on your case and what you must do next. If you qualify for permanent residence, your family members outside Canada will be required to undergo a medical examination, and you and your family members will have to pass criminality and security checks.

We may contact you to arrange an interview to verify or expand on information contained in your application. 最后有个面试,这天就拿身份

If your application is approved, we will contact you to arrange a final interview. You will likely be granted permanent resident status at that interview.

If your application is refused, we will inform you in writing and you may be asked to leave Canada.

Questions?
If you still have questions after reading this guide, visit our website or phone our Call Centre.


Appendix A: Issuance or renewal of work permits (including open work permits) in Canada
This section contains information on the following types of work permit:

Work permit for a specific employer
Open work permit
Bridge extension

Completing an application for permanent residence as a live-in caregiver does not mean that your work permit or temporary status will be automatically extended. You must maintain your legal status in Canada while your application for permanent residence is in process. Therefore,
you must apply for a renewal of your work permit before it expires. It is illegal to work without a valid permit.

If your work permit expires before you submit an application to extend it, you must also apply to restore your status
within 90 days of the expiration date of your work permit. If you do not, you will be without st atus and will have to leave Canada.
别让签证过期,用imm 5553表格申请新签证

What form do I have to use?
Use the guide Applying to change conditions or extend your stay in Canada as a Worker (
IMM 5553) to apply for any type of work permit or to restore your status.

1. Work permit for a specific employer
Your current work permit allows you to work as a live-in caregiver for a specific employer. You may change employers, but you must apply for a new work permit with a new confirmation by Service Canada and a new employment contract. In addition to a valid work permit, you must continue to meet all other requirements of the Live-in Caregiver Program.

If you spend time outside Canada, it will not be counted towards the 24 months of required employment.

If you take live-out employment, the time you lived outside your employer’s house will not be counted towards the 24 months of required employment within a three-year period. If you do not have 24 months of live-in employment as a caregiver, you are not eligible to apply for permanent residence under the Live-in Caregiver Program.

If you work for more than one employer at a time, you could lose your status in Canada. The length of time you work without status will not be counted as part of the 24-month requirement and you may be disqualified.

2. Open work permit
What is an open work permit and am I eligible to apply for one?
An open work permit allows you to accept employment and to work for any employer for the time period specified on the work permit. It can only be granted once you have received first stage approval (approval in principal) of your application for permanent residence. You should submit your application for an open work permit together with your application for permanent residence. Write “open work permit” at the top of your application.

申请open,一般半年时间,然后就不限制工种了

If you send your open work permit application with your permanent residence application and Then…
you continue working for the employer mentioned on your current work permit while the application is being processed you do not have to extend your work permit, even if it expires during the processing of your application for permanent residence.


you change employer after sending your applications you need to submit a new application for a work permit along with a new confirmation by Service Canada and pay the appropriate fees.

3. Bridge extension
If you become temporarily unemployed, you may apply for a bridge extension.

A bridge extension is an interim work permit given to live-in caregivers whose work permit is about to expire and who are between jobs and have not yet found a new employer. The extension is usually for a period of
two months. To apply, use the application mentionned at the beginning of this section and write “bridge extension” across the top of the form. Also indicate your request for a bridge extension (and the reason) in section D 10. This application may be submitted at any time.


Applying for permanent residence from within Canada: Live-in caregivers (IMM 5290)
Appendix B: Dependent children
Dependent children include:

Your dependent children
The dependent children of your spouse or common-law partner
The dependent children of your dependent children
Note: If you are a divorced or separated parent, a minor child of whom you have joint or sole custody is considered a dependent family member. This applies even if the minor child usually lives with the other parent and will not join you in Canada.

Type A He or she is under the age of 22; and is single (not married and not in a common-law relationship)
Type B He or she has been continuously enrolled and in attendance as a full-time student in a post-secondary institution accredited by the relevant government authority and depends substantially on the financial support of a parent either

since before the age of 22; or

Type C He or she is 22 years of age or older, has depended substantially on the financial support of a parent since before the age of 22 and is unable to provide for him/herself due to a medical condition.

回复: 想去加国做住家保姆

关注此楼的各位,今天我很受打击,现在还似梦非梦的。

我说的这些话会断掉那些标榜着住家保姆移民的广告的中介的饭碗。

今天我和我的一位亲戚去咨询其它一些加拿大劳工移民的信息,我是在帮他去了解的,因为他也想去加拿大。可是竟然给我们发现了一个内幕。原来主家看护的移民率非常低,你可以申请,可是通过率非常低,至少我自己也没碰过可以真正靠做保姆而拿到枫叶卡的人。住家保姆就像其它一些加拿大的劳工,可以申请移民,但是大多数是遭到大使馆拒签,通过率非常低。除非你到时候申请移民的时候以其它一些技术工种和其它的一些技术资格证,例如厨师是成功率最高的,还要是有十多年工作经验的大厨师,住家保姆和那些客房服务员都是没什么技术的工种,虽然比较容易过去那边但也容易回来,终究只是工作签证,技术含量低,移民率低。所以想靠住家保姆移民的人请细心考虑衡量。

我现在都在担心我现在所走的路了。

难道我花那么时间精力和钱财就是为了出国转转然后回国?

说不定成本也没捞回来。

I feel shocked,upset and fearful now.

carolhome , 今天我又回头认真看一遍这个帖子, 发现了你写的这一段话. 不知道你到加拿大后了解到的情况也还是这样吗? ( 唉,怕就怕付出巨大代价,却竹篮打水一场空. 年轻的朋友还好,多的是扳本的机会我都奔四的人了,再浪费个几年就50了。 )

这个基本不用担心
因为 虽然厨师什么的 属于技术工人,加拿大的确缺技术工人焊工,卡车司机什么的
还有我们这行在加拿大已经有10几个年头了吧,具体多久我没去自己查
只要干下来,资料按照官方要求的,基本没问题的
做事要有信心,要知道自己是为了什么而做,为了什么来加拿大,为了什么而放弃国内远赴他乡
我们做这个主要是为了移民,那更要有信心,2-3年的忍受,可以换得加拿大的身份,很值得的,现在技术移民很麻烦了,时间很长,而且来后落差大
年龄大其实是个优势,意味着工作经验多,只要英文别太差,基本没问题,而且移民的时候不像其他工种还要考雅思什么的

决定来了 就好好考虑考虑,一般没什么大问题~~:wdb10:

还有 关于ece,early childhood education,2年full time 的college,我们做这个 已经有了至少2年的本地工作经验,然后如果有文凭的话,更容易找到工作,而且这个工作前景还可以

昨天我老板说,这边的学前班 ,今天改时间了,具体新闻我还没查到。学前班叫kindgarden,是属于公立的,免费的,一般1天2个半小时,改了后是早晨7点到晚上好像6点,具体时间我记不清了,时间长了,工作机会更大了。
daycare是要交钱的,而且要排期,申请补助好像也要排期。
学前班是4岁开始上,6岁可以上小学。

part time上college的我还没仔细查,大体了解了一下
如果我们递交了材料,会很快下个fn,用那个给学校,如果读完拿到pr,有的学校可以减免部分学费。 没有移民身份的话如果读书,费用跟留学生一样,是当地的4倍。 part time 按门累计。

具体我还没查
多伦多的u和college

http://www.yorkcollege.ca/ york u
http://www.senecac.on.ca/ senecac
http://www.georgebrown.ca/ georgebrown
http://www.torontocollege.com/ 查这个

还有我们学英文,我们不属于移民,esl 有的收费,免费的也有,离家挺远的,总之还是要提高英语阿,不然读书很费劲,而且选专业也是个问题,选专业主要是为了将来的工作。有的人可能不会选这个专业,可以去幼儿园当义工看看。我现在迷茫的东西还挺多。我们自己的时间很少。姐妹们,平时多锻炼一下身体,运动一下,身体是革命的本钱。



下面的是我有天搜东西查到的个文章,有兴趣就看看吧
ECE(Early Childhood Education)专业学习和找工体验谈

建议所有朋友从头看,如果你是铁了心要学ECE,可以直接从第二部分开始看。
一、至关重要――专业的选择
在加拿大上高等学校,不管是college还是university,都是时间和金钱的巨大投资,一定,一定要在决定上学之前好好研究一下各个专业将来的就业前景,薪资水平,再结合你个人的兴趣爱好,认真选择一个好的专业,不然上了之后后悔,相当可惜。
在选择专业时,我有这么几个方法推荐:
1. 首先就是各个学校的catalog啦。地球人都知道。最好到亲自到学校去拿一本。知道了都有哪些专业,对各个专业有了个清楚的了解,才好选择啊。
2. 各个学校的毕业生调查表。可以到google上搜索“学校名”+“graduate report”+“毕业年度”,例如“George Brown Graduate Report 2006-2007”。当然你也可以把学校的网站上去找,不过google搜到的快些就是了。这样得到的一般是个PDF文件,表中列出这个学校当年各个专业的录取人数,毕业人数,毕业率,就业率,和平均薪资。平均薪资是个很有用的数,不过你也不要100%地相信它,因为有些专业的薪水可能根据每年的就业市场的变化而变化,去年年薪高的今年未必就高;而且这个“平均数”也有一定水分,因为也有可能参加这个调查的毕业生都是找到了比较好的工作的那些,造成这个数值比实际值偏高。总的来讲,要竖着比较(把你中意的专业和其它专业比较),也要横着比较(同一专业不同年份相比)。
3. 到各个就业指导中心或学校的学生服务中心去,参加workshop, 听information session,以获取更多的信息,决定某专业是否适合自己。比如,我知道有些就业指导中心有专门帮助你决定今后职业发展方向的课程,根据你的性格倾向、特长和爱好等等帮你决定学从事哪一行适合你。而且,这些职业指导中心对各个工种的薪资水平也有一个比较客观的统计。这样的地方很多了,COSTI,YMCA,等等,这里不多说,大家常去图书馆看看就了解了。另外,有些公司或部门有他们自己的培训项目,很可能的些工种不需要你有高等学历,所以建议大家常去我提及的这些地方看看,也许你刚好符合用人单位的条件,如果能这样找到中意的工作(当然你很可能要先培训),省去一两年甚至更长时间上学的投入,不是很好么。
4. 那么究竟哪些专业就业前景好呢?可以看看这个: http://www.jobfutures.ca/fos/browse-...ood-2009.shtml 一看就明白,不用我多说。
二、报考ECE专业
首先我要说的是,如果你确实对这个专业很感兴趣,你可以找家附近的daycare去申请做一名义工,亲身观察一下做daycare老师一天的工作经历。做了一段时间以后,如果你还是喜欢,你可以考虑学这个专业;如果做了以后发现和自己当初想得不一样,还是另选其它专业吧。
下面说申请。其实申请这个专业不难的。到www.ontariocolleges.ca上去搜一下,很多很多学校都提供两年制的ECE Diploma课程。我有时在想是不是因为学这个的人太多了造成我们想找个好工作这么难呢??关于找工作下面再说。基本上,要求的东西并不算多。你在网站申请以后,学校会寄给你信件告诉你已收到你的申请,然后会因为我们移民多数是mature student,学校会通知你去考试(assessment test)。考试是要交钱的,所以只去自己最想去的学校考。考试的内容不一样。我当初去Humber考的时候就只是一篇essay而已,而去George Brown时就考了好几项,记得有阅读,有语法,还有essay。阅读不是很简单,不过好像我的成绩还可以。有的朋友问要不要雅思或托福成绩。这些成绩如果你有的话就交,对拿到offer会有帮助的,不过据我所知这不是学校硬性的要求。在学校这个专业的网页上肯定有写(Admission Requirements),大家可以去查一下。
还有,如果你拿到了学校的offer,接下来会是information session。在这个会上你会听到很全面的关于这个专业的信息,你会知道这个专业的学习难度和将来的工作情况。然后你如果决定了要上这个专业,交学费。
三、学习过程
有的学校(比如Seneca)是一边上学一边实习,而George Brown是七个星期上学,七个星期实习。上学期间,学业很重,至少对我们中国人来说。阅读很多。我最艰难的时候,一个星期只有周末拿出一个小时的时间去买下星期吃的东西,其它所有的时候都用来上课或自习了。每星期都有大小测验和作业。作业一定要严格按照老师的要求去做,少一项也要扣分。每一课的难度和老师关系很大。有的老师要求严,我记得我有一个社会调查的作业,交上去两厘米厚的本子,我有个同学比我的厚一倍!而有的老师要求不严,本地的同学上这门课根本不看书。光带脑袋去听了,最后也能过。
开学后,除了正常的学业之外,你有几个任务:第一,First Aid & CPR证书(很容易拿到,但要自己交钱);第二,Immunization Form,这个表中列出了所有你需要打的免疫针,本地人都有自己的免记录,找家庭医生一填就得了;如果你没有自己的免疫记录,也不难办,找家庭医生或者去Walk-in诊所,医生会让你去验血,以化验你有哪些项目已经免疫,哪些还没有,然后把那些你还没打的给你补上。实际上,你去daycare实习时他们真正要看的就是tuberculosis(肺结核)。我们中国人小时候基本上都打过肺结核疫苗,所以mantoux(曼托实验,就是皮试)一定会是阳性,然后去照个胸透,证明肺部正常就行了。最后还有一个Police Check,也很简单,把表一填,寄出去就行了,不过还是要自己交钱:-(
努力学习的结果就是中国人的成绩都相当好。最后毕业时我们五个中国人有四个是荣誉毕业生。所以,中国人不用担心这个。有人说某某专业难,我看可能哪个专业对中国人来说都不会真正难。要比学习吃苦的程度,中国人是首屈一指。
四、实习
最大的体会就是和实习老师的关系要搞好。大部分指导老师都是挺好的。但你如果遇到的四位指导老师都很nice的话你就是幸运的。具体不多说了,反正么,这个人际关系,到了哪都一样。实习的时候该做的工作当然都要认认真真的做(很多哦),不过嘴巴甜一点,眼睛尖一点,干活勤快点,不该说话的时候(比如指导老师们之间闹矛盾的时候)不要说,最后成绩肯定不会太差的。说句题外话,如果你是不擅处理人际关系的人,我不建议你学这个专业。Daycare就是一个女人堆,三个女人一台戏,十几个女人……
在你实习期间,如果你认为你受到了什么不公平的待遇,你可以和你的学校老师讲,你讲了,基本上也不会有什么实质性的结果;但是你讲了至少老师会知道你的处境,而不会认为是你
态度不认真而扣你的成绩。
五、找工作
这可有东西可写!不要以为你成绩好了就好找工作!找工作基本上是另外一码事。我当初毕业时GPA3.8,还拿了两个奖,结果我找了大半年才找到个鸡肋的工作。
首先,你实习的时候,就跟daycare上上下下关系搞好。也不用买东西送礼什么的,脸上常带着笑,每天准时到,认真做事,这就很好了。实习结束之前,留下你的简历,可以送一张小贺卡表示谢意。实习完了以后,时不时回去看看,回去之前最好打个电话,告诉人家你大概什么时候到。我这么做了,结果毕业后就在第三次实习的daycare做supply teacher,如果我坚持做下去,也能混到个全职的位子。
说到supply teacher,不要一听说是supply teacher就不愿意做。好的daycare的全职老师大多数都是从supply teacher开始干起的。我的同学们都是同时给好几家好的daycare做supply,哪家有机会了就升级为full-time了。我所说的“好的daycare”指的是硬件条件比较好,薪水比较高,福利比较好的单位。整个大多地区工资最高的大概就是City of Toronto的daycare了,City付的薪水是某些私立daycare的两倍。大概是那么50多家。你可以在网上发简历
http://wx.toronto.ca/inter/hr/jobs.n...5?OpenDocument要坚持发哦,每月都发。
其它的薪水不错的有:
- 各个学校的Lab schools
- Woodgreen Childcare Centres (http://www.woodgreen.org/)
- YMCA (http://www.ymcatoronto.org/en/index.html)
- YWCA (http://www.ywcatoronto.org/)
- Family Daycare (http://www.familydaycare.com/)
- 我现在工作的Upper Canada薪水也还可以(http://www.uppercanadachildcare.com/)
找工作的方式不拘一格,你可以
- 到City of Toronto网站上去找到家附近的daycare,http://www.toronto.ca/children/gcmapx.htm然后直接上门去递简历。不要以为递完了没消息就是没希望了,我递过一家半年以后才给我打电话。
- 打cold call。直接发fax或者email求职。
- Job Bank。http://www.jobbank.gc.ca/ 注意,在网上找工作时,如果招聘广告中没有写明薪水是多少,你就要不指望这地方会给得多;相反薪水福利多的单位会把具体的数字写出来。不过,这样的岗位竞争可想而知会是很激烈的。
- 推荐一个找工网站 http://www.wowjobs.ca/start.aspx 这个搜索引擎能把很多招聘网站上的广告一网打尽,很不错哦。
- www.childcareadvantage.ca 这个网站中只有daycare的工作信息,是专门给想在daycare找工作的人开办的。免费哦。
- 另外,学ECE或者ECA的还可以自己开家庭式daycare,本人还没尝试过,不在此讨论。
你的简历最好去就业指导中心让人家帮你看看,写得好点。简历发出去以后,我刚毕业时是差不多每十个电话有一个面试,现在要发简历,面试肯定多(因为经验丰富了),可我有全职工作了也不想轻易换。电话来了以后,接下来就是面试。最好在学校里或就业中心好好准备研习一下面试,关于面试的着装、面试时的举止、讲话的方式、各种问题的准备等等,如果你真想要这个工作,你就要认认真真地准备面试。我的个人体会就是,外表得体,讲话沉稳不紧张(很关键,一紧张你就完了),态度大方,回答问题准备充分,这些都对你最后拿到offer很有用。

这个基本不用担心
因为 虽然厨师什么的 属于技术工人,加拿大的确缺技术工人焊工,卡车司机什么的
还有我们这行在加拿大已经有10几个年头了吧,具体多久我没去自己查
只要干下来,资料按照官方要求的,基本没问题的
做事要有信心,要知道自己是为了什么而做,为了什么来加拿大,为了什么而放弃国内远赴他乡
我们做这个主要是为了移民,那更要有信心,2-3年的忍受,可以换得加拿大的身份,很值得的,现在技术移民很麻烦了,时间很长,而且来后落差大
年龄大其实是个优势,意味着工作经验多,只要英文别太差,基本没问题,而且移民的时候不像其他工种还要考雅思什么的

决定来了 就好好考虑考虑,一般没什么大问题~~:wdb10:

真是太谢谢nicy那么热心和真诚的解答了!! 在这里还真有一种找到了组织的感觉. 谢谢nicy !!

国内的无犯罪纪录
因为我们来得时候 作过这个
但是日期可能与登陆之间 有空缺
所以最好开个全的
登陆前一天的
要派出所开的原件 list上写的是15 originals of ur police certificate(s)
然后在来份中英文公正
都需要时间
还有邮过来
走之前开的无罪纪录已经过了有效期,必须委托国内的人从新再开过一个,日期直到离境的那一天。这一份无罪纪录是没有失效期的,只不过只能证明你在离境日之前的无犯罪记录罢了,一旦你再回中国,入了境以后的记录就必须另外再开了。在广州,这种无罪纪录在市局做,是一条龙服务,包中英文公证件的,但是要在办的时候必须跟当值的警官说明是在海外用的,他们会跟你解释的。
