About the law and the debate

Official summary of the law (Knesset)

In order to prevent the severance of a long-standing care relationship between a patient and a foreign worker employed in the field of caregiving, which could cause serious harm to the patient, it was determined in a temporary provision, valid for four months, that the Minister of Interior may reconsider and approve requests to extend a visitor's residence permit, for the employment of foreign caregiving workers, which were denied during the COVID-19 pandemic period. These requests will be examined in cases where the relationship between the patient and the foreign worker has continued since at least March 2021, due to reliance on the extended preparation period granted following the COVID-19 pandemic, provided that at the time the request is submitted the foreign worker has not resided in Israel for more than 13 years.
