EXPRESS ENTRY
As a foreign national, If you plan is to migrate to Canada as a skilled worker under the permanent residency program, one of the most popular immigration options is through the express entry
Express entry is a point-based comprehensive ranking system in which selectees are usually selected periodically among the pool of thousands of applicants to apply for permanent residence.
HOW DO I QUALIFY FOR THIS PROGRAM
All potential applicants must meet certain criteria under the various skilled worker programs to be considered under the express entry. These skilled worker programs under the express entry in which applicants must meet the minimum general requirements are Federal Skilled Worker, Federal Skilled Trade, and Canadian Experience Class.
To qualify under the express entry, you must meet the following criteria; Canadian or foreign education ( Foreign certificates must be assessed by a Canadian authorized body), work experience, and knowledge of a language which could be English, French, or both and some other criteria. Once the applicant meets these general requirements, interested candidates can create their express entry profile to be among the pool of candidates. Applicants that do not meet the minimum requirements of any of these three programs, cannot create an express entry profile.
Points are awarded based on a comprehensive ranking system under Core Human Capital, Spouse or Common-Law Partner factors, Skill Transferability Factors, and Additional Points. These four factors have a maximum point of 1,200. Apart from the scores of Candidates, the tie-breaking rules are also applicable to determine the selectees with high points who are within the announced government biweekly cut-offs and are issued Invitation to Apply (ITA) for further processing which begins a new milestone towards achieving your Permanent residence status.
