According to Immigration Minister Marc Miller, the two caregiver pilot programs for immigration to Canada, the Home Child Care Provider (HCCP) and the Home Support Worker (HSW) pilots, are ending this month and will be replaced by two new caregiver pilot programs.

The minister of immigration is also making indications that the pilot programs for caregiver immigration may soon become permanent.

“Our programs need to reflect caregivers’ invaluable contributions, as they play a critical role in supporting Canadian families,” stated Miller.

“These two new pilots will not only enhance support for caregivers but also give families the high-quality care they need as we endeavor to establish a permanent caregivers program.”
