Hi there,

I am working under Live-in Caregiver Program, my visa and WP are gonna expire soon, so my current employer wants I work 1 more year with them, but I am not sure If I need to get a new LMO to apply for a new Work Permit, or just I need the same LMO I got at the beginning?.

Thank you for your help. :)
 
Hi Marianella,

If you have been in Canada under the Live-in Caregiver Program for less than 4 years and you continue to work for the same employer, you do not need a new Labour Market Opinion when applying to extend your stay.

If you want to continue working for the same employer, you will need to get: A letter from the employer stating that you will continue to be employed on a full-time basis for an additional period of time; and a copy of a new, or extended, signed employment contract.

However, if you have been in Canada under the Live-in Caregiver Program for more than 4 years,you will need a new LMO to apply for a work permit, even if you are staying with the same employer.
