The Canadian government manages applications for permanent residency from qualified foreign employees through the well-known immigration system known as Canada Express Entry. It was implemented in 2015 to assist Canada in luring highly qualified and experienced people who can boost the economy and fill labor market vacancies.
A points-based system, the Express Entry system assesses applicants based on a number of criteria, including age, education, work experience, language skills, and adaptability. Based on these criteria, the algorithm gives each applicant a score and compares them to other applicants in the Express Entry pool. The top applicants are then invited to submit an application for permanent residence via routine draws conducted by the Canadian government.
Candidates must first establish an online profile and submit it in order to be considered for the Express Entry programme. Their Express Entry profile is then reviewed based on their Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) score. Additionally, they must be eligible for one of the three Express Entry programmes: the Canadian Experience Class, the Federal Skilled Worker Programme, or the Federal Skilled Trades Programme.
The Federal Skilled Worker Programme is intended for skilled workers who desire to permanently immigrate to Canada and have job experience abroad. The Canadian expertise Class is intended for those who have already worked briefly in Canada and want to remain there permanently as opposed to the Federal qualified Trades Programme, which is intended for qualified tradesmen with expertise in certain occupations.
A candidate has 60 days to submit their application after receiving an invitation to apply for permanent residency. They can then relocate to Canada with their family and apply to become permanent residents if their application is accepted.
Many highly qualified employees from all around the world compete for a place in the pool under the Canada Express Entry program, which is a very competitive procedure. However, the program gives a fantastic opportunity to move to Canada and become a permanent resident for people who match the eligibility requirements and have a high CRS score.
