setting or have completed one year of full-time paid employment (including at least six months of continuous employment with one
employer) within the three years as a live-in
caregiver immediately before a live-in caregiver submits an application
for a work permit
- applied for a work permit as a live-in caregiver before entering
Canada
- have successfully completed the equivalent
