Express Entry

The Express Entry system is a fast and efficient immigration process that manages applications for three of Canada’s main economic immigration programs:

1. Federal Skilled Worker Program (FSW)

2. Federal Skilled Trades Program (FST)

3. Canadian Experience Class (CEC)

1.     Create an Express Entry Profile
Eligible candidates must create an Express Entry profile online. This profile includes detailed information about your skills, work experience, language proficiency, education, and other factors relevant to immigration eligibility.

​

2.     Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS)
Your profile will be assigned a CRS score based on the information you provide. The higher your CRS score, the better your chances of receiving an Invitation to Apply (ITA) for permanent residency. Points are awarded for factors such as:

• Age: Younger applicants score higher.

• Education: Higher educational qualifications increase your score.

• Work Experience: More years of skilled work experience can lead to higher points.

• Language Skills: Strong language proficiency in English or French is highly valued.

• Adaptability: Points for Canadian education or work experience, or if you have a valid job offer in Canada.

​

3.     Invitation to Apply (ITA)
Candidates with the highest CRS scores are invited to apply for permanent residency through regular Express Entry draws. Once you receive an ITA, you can submit your application for permanent residency.

​

4.     Permanent Residency
After submitting your application and undergoing necessary medical and security checks, if everything is in order, you will receive your permanent residency approval. You and your family can then move to Canada and enjoy all the benefits of Canadian life.

To be eligible for the Express Entry system, candidates must meet the requirements of one of the following programs:

​

1.     Federal Skilled Worker Program (FSW):
This program is for skilled workers with foreign work experience who want to immigrate to Canada. To qualify, applicants must meet minimum work experience, education, language proficiency, and financial requirements.

​

2.     Federal Skilled Trades Program (FST):
This program is for individuals with experience in a skilled trade, such as electricians, plumbers, or construction workers. To qualify, applicants must meet specific requirements related to work experience, language proficiency, and certification in a skilled trade.

​

3.     Canadian Experience Class (CEC):
This program is for individuals who have already worked in Canada on a temporary work permit. Applicants must have at least one year of skilled work experience in Canada and meet certain language requirements.
