Migrate to Canada

Migrate to Canada

With effect from 1st January 2015, Canadian Government has introduced a new process for selection of skilled professionals and tradespersons wishing to immigrate to Canada and live and work in Canada as a permanent Resident. The new Canada skilled immigration selection process introduced by Citizenship and Immigration Canada is called Express Entry. With this process, the applicants can start filing their applications immigration to Canada.

Categories of Permanent Residency

  • Federal Skilled Worker (FSW)
  • Canadian Experience Class (CEC)
  • Investor/Business Class
  • Provincial Nominee Program (PNP)

All of these above Categories are assessed under same pool of Express Entry Point System. Here are key features of the Canada Express Entry Program:

  • The applicants can apply for immigration to Canada only after they are invited to apply under any of above programs by Citizenship and Immigration Canada.
  • Invitation is easy to come for qualified and sufficiently experienced Candidates. The application will stay in the Express Entry pool for one year after which it will be removed and candidate will need to re-enter if continues to be interested.
  • There will be a Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) which will be points based on which application will be filed in the pool. Under the CRS, it will be beneficial (in case of married applicants) for both the spouses to offer their IELTS and Credential Assessment Report summaries.
  • Regular draws will be taken from the pool and Candidates appearing higher in the ranking in the pool will be selected.
  • It is NOT MANDATORY for a candidate to have a confirmed job offer from a Canadian Employer to be eligible to get an invite to apply for PR visa.
  • The instructions that will be followed to pick out applicants from the express entry pool will be posted on the website of Citizenship and Immigration Canada.
  • Candidates having confirmed job offer are not expected to be many and hence chances for express entry applications filed in the pool, which are without job offer are likely to be extremely bright.
  • The details filed in the Express entry pool through comprehensive Ranking system (CRS) can be updated.
  • Also once you file your application under the express entry pool, chances of you as a provincial nomination increase! Even as a provincial nominee, you will get additional points under the comprehensive Ranking system (CRS), thereby improving chances of moving up in rankings in the pool.
  • Under Express entry program is that almost all occupations are now eligible for filing the application under the federal skilled worker program.
  • Candidates who are chosen from the express entry pool must also ensure that they meet the federal points based selection criteria and its requirements.
  • The Permanent Residence applications of candidates picked up from the pool will be processed within six months of being lodged in for Federal stage.
