Hi, me (Spass) and my husband (Epass) is planning to take my sibling as helper to take care of my daughter. Is it possible to apply a work permit for her?. Thank you

No, this is not possible.

You cannot employ relatives as domestic helpers. This loophole to bring in family members, who are ineligible for any other visa, was closed long ago!
