Canada Immigration is currently reviewing the Caring for Children and Caring for People with High Medical Needs pilot programs to determine how caregivers will apply for permanent residence after the pilots expire on November 29, 2019. Details will be provided before the pilots expire.

In November 2014, Canada Immigration essentially cancelled the Live-In-Caregiver program and replaced it with two similar programs which were: Caring for Children and Caring for People with High Medical Needs. These two programs were only pilot (temporary) programs.

These 5-year pilot programs are scheduled to expire on November 29, 2019.

It is not yet known what will happen after November 2019 or whether these programs will be extended.
