Evidence of Status in Saudi Arabia for Canadian Live-In Caregiver Visa Application

by Sean
(Saudi Arabia)

Hi Sharon,

Good day! I would like to ask regarding my application to Canada as a Live-in caregiver.

I am currently working here in Saudi Arabia as a nurse.

I do have an employer already in Canada and in few months from now I will start to process my Canadian visa application as a Live in caregiver.

I have the following concerns regarding my requirements;

First, do I need to submit my passport together with my application when I start to process? Actually, right now my passport is not with my custody, it is with my present employer.

If ever my application will be granted without my passport would it be possible to have stamp visa in Philippines by the time I will have my exit here in Saudi Arabia after a year?

Secondly, regarding my evidence of status in Saudi Arabia which is one of the requirements, do I need to provide the proof of my present immigration status in Saudi Arabia as well as the copy of my exit and re-entry visa.

I remember that the Saudi immigration department did not give me any documents with regards to this when I entered the country.

Do you think the Canadian embassy here in Saudi Arabia will be going to require this documents? What if I don't have? Will they not accept my application?

Thanks
Sean

Evidence of Status in Saudi Arabia for Canadian Live-In Caregiver Visa Application
by: Sharon - Expats Guide

Dear Sean

Thanks for your inquiry (please note that I am not an immigration officer).

According to the checklist for a Canadian work permit in the live-in caregiver program here are the requirements:

Original Passport - if you cannot leave your original passport during the processing period, you must submit a photocopy of all pages in your passport, including blanks.

Evidence of status in Saudi Arabia - you must provide proof of your present immigration status in Saudi Arabia as well as a copy of your exit and re-entry visa.

Most probably the Canadian Embassy will require this document. If you submit an incomplete live-in caregiver visa application, you might delay the processing of your Canadian visa application.

Best of Luck
Sharon
