Immigration Nuggets – Express Entry

When most potential immigrants research Canadian Immigration the most popular keyword is Express Entry which is an application management system for the following economic immigration programs:

  1. Federal Skilled Worker program;
  2. Federal Skilled Trades program;
  3. Canadian Experience class; and
  4. Portions of the Provincial Nominee program.

 

The Express Entry program was established in 2015 and it allows potential immigrants to create profiles and join the Express Entry pool from which the IRCC can then invite specific individuals to apply for Permanent Residency based on a number of factors including their occupations and score.

There are a number of factors which determine the individual’s score including:

  1. Age;
  2. Level of education;
  3. Language proficiency;
  4. Work experience; and
  5. Skills transferability.

The good news with regards to Immigration even with the disruption caused by the Covid-19 pandemic is that the Minister of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship stated when tabling the 2021-2023 Immigration Levels Plan that Canada intends to welcome 401,000 permanent residents in 2021, 411,000 in 2022 and 421,000 in 2023.
