Hello Ma’am,
I’m going to apply for Permanent Residence after finishing my caregiving contract and completing 24 months in the program. However, I don’t meet the required 72 units post secondary education. Can I continue my studies here? What can I do?
Thanks,
Josephine

Hi Josephine,
Education is an eligibility requirement for Permanent Residence after completing 24 months in the caregiving program.
You can check the eligibility requirements for caregivers here:
Caregivers for people with high medical needs
Eligibility requirements for Permanent Residence
To be eligible for PR you must have completed a Canadian post-secondary degree, diploma or certificate of at least one year, or have completed a foreign degree, diploma or certificate. Your educational credentials must be assessed by any of these organizations:
- Comparative Education Service – University of Toronto School of Continuing Studies
- International Credential Assessment Service of Canada
- World Education Services
- International Qualifications Assessment Service
- International Credential Evaluation Service
To meet this requirement you can study here in Canada. If your study program is more than 6 months you need to secure a study permit. Please see a related post here.
