Verdict
The employer is a private individual (Deepak Singh Nijjer) with no verifiable business presence, and the ONLY application method is mailing a physical resume to 4354 Shelbourne St, which sits in a residential stretch of Saanich with no business registered at that address in searches. While private households do legitimately hire live-in companions/caregivers, a mail-only application to an unverifiable individual's residential address with no phone or email is the classic high-risk pattern this audit targets, and the above-market $25/hr full-time wage for a companion role adds to the concern.
