Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about applying and working as a caregiver through Peterson Care Solutions.

We welcome applications from caregivers and support workers based in Africa and Asia. You should have at least one year of hands-on caregiving experience — whether in a home, hospital, or care facility — and a genuine desire to build a career abroad. A valid passport and basic English proficiency are required.

No. Submitting your application is completely free. We are paid by the employers we partner with, not by candidates. You will never be asked to pay a recruitment fee at any stage of the process.

We currently place caregivers with verified home care employers in Canada and the United Kingdom. Both destinations offer structured pathways to permanent residency for eligible caregivers over time.

After you submit your application, a recruiter will reach out within 3–5 business days to discuss your profile. Matching, employer interviews, and visa processing typically take between 3 and 9 months depending on the destination country and your individual circumstances.

Yes. Both Canada and the UK require a confirmed employer job offer before a work visa can be sponsored. We handle the employer matching process for you — once an employer selects your profile and extends an offer, we will guide you through the visa application steps.

You will typically need a valid international passport, updated CV or résumé, proof of caregiving qualifications or certificates, employment reference letters, and a recent passport photograph. Additional documents such as police clearance or medical certificates may be required depending on your destination.

We provide guidance and support throughout the visa process, including document checklists and step-by-step advice. We do not act as a licensed immigration lawyer, so for complex legal matters we may refer you to a registered immigration consultant.

Our team reviews every application and will contact you within 3–5 business days via WhatsApp or email. We will verify your details, discuss your experience and preferences, and begin searching for suitable employer matches. You are under no obligation at any point until you formally accept an offer.
