About Canada's Federal Express Entry System

The Express Entry system was introduced in January 2015 by the IRCC (Immigration, Refugee, Citizenship Canada) to manage and process permanent residence applications from skilled foreign nationals.

All the interested skilled applicants create and submit their EE profiles and enter the pool of candidates based on their skills. Later on, after a detailed profile assessment only high-scoring candidates are invited to apply for Canadian PR under any one of the three Federal Economic immigration programs, which includes:

·         Federal Skilled Worker Program

·         Federal Skilled Trades Program

·         Canada Experience Class

 

Apart from above three programs, the PNP is also a key pathway via which Canada invite skilled foreign nationals. Most of the Canadian provinces & territories operate PNP streams to invite and nominate skilled applicants who are capable of fulfilling provincial labour market needs.

 

Candidates who qualify under Express Entry-aligned Enhanced PNP streams and successfully obtain provincial nomination are awarded with additional 600 CRS points, which virtually guarantees them an Invitation to Apply (ITA) for Canada PR.

 

If you are willing to move to Canada in 2021 via Express Entry, you may take a free profile assessment and find the best program among the three.
