Canada’s immigration system is renowned for its efficiency and focus on attracting skilled talent from across the globe. At the heart of this system is the Express Entry program, which manages applications for three major economic immigration programs: the Federal Skilled Worker Program (FSWP), the Federal Skilled Trades Program (FSTP), and the Canadian Experience Class (CEC). A key component of this program is the Express Entry draw, a regular event that determines which candidates will be invited to apply for permanent residence in Canada.

The Provincial Nominee Program allows provinces and territories in Canada to nominate individuals who wish to immigrate to Canada and are interested in settling in a specific province.

How does it works?

1. Express Entry Profile Creation
Interested candidates must first create an online profile and submit it to the Express Entry pool. This profile includes information about their skills, work experience, language ability, education, and other personal details
2. Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) Score
Each candidate is assigned a CRS score based on the information provided in their profile. The CRS score is out of 1,200 points and ranks candidates against each other in the pool.
3. Invitation to Apply (ITA)
During an Express Entry draw, IRCC announces a CRS score cutoff. Candidates with scores above or equal to this cutoff receive an ITA. This means they are invited to submit a complete application for permanent residence.
