The above information is based on $10.56 per hour, for a 40 hour work week, paid monthly to your caregiver. 

 

From the net amount listed above, you may deduct up to a maximum of $369.42 per month for room and board of your Live-in Caregiver. 

 

Therefore, the total cost to employ a Foreign Live-in Caregiver at 40 hours per week, paid monthly would be:

$1457.95 minus 369.42 for room and board equal $1088.53 per month net pay to your Live-in Caregiver, for the months that there is 4 weeks in a month. 

 

Canada Revenue Agency will require you to submit the Federal & Provincial Tax deductions, Canada Pension Plan and Employment Insurance that are to be deducted from your caregiver’s pay.  As an employer you will also be required to make a monthly employer for CPP & EI.  See calculation below…

Overtime Pay

You must be paid overtime pay after 44 hours of work each week. The overtime rate must be at least 1½ times the regular rate of pay.

Minimum Wage

The minimum wage is the lowest hourly rate an employer can pay an employee. Currently the minimum wage is $10.56 per hour, effective January 1, 2012.

Your gross pay, before deductions, must be at least minimum wage. By law, your employer must deduct Income Tax, Canada Pension Plan (CPP), and Employment Insurance (EI) from your total pay and your employer must make CPP and EI contributions for you.

If you and your employer agree that you will receive a wage greater than the minimum wage, then that is the amount you are entitled to receive.
