The Driving Back to Work (DBTW) program has reached its maximum participant capacity for this fiscal year.

Application status: Closed

Introduction

While the DBTW program intake remains paused, a change has been made to the program's eligibility criteria. This update will change program eligibility to include individuals who have legal entitlement to work in Canada, including Ukrainian evacuees as applicable.

Note, we are not reopening the application intake at this time. The DBTW program has reached its maximum participant capacity for this fiscal year and remains closed to new applicants until further notice. We appreciate your understanding and patience as we work to enhance the program for future participants.

For updates and more information, see Helping Ukrainian evacuees become truck drivers and continue to monitor this page.
