Express Entry

If you fill out a profile for Express Entry, your application will be ranked according to a points system. Your Express Entry profile will get points based on:

Your education level;

Your abilities in English and/or French (Canada’s 2 official languages);

Your work experience and skills;

Your age;

If you have a job offer in Canada; and

Your spouse’s education, language abilities and work experience.

Additional points are also awarded if you have completed a college or university program in Canada or if you have a provincial nomination.

Based on the total points you get, if you are highly ranked, you will be invited to apply for permanent residence as a skilled immigrant.

Once you accept the invitation to apply and submit further documentation, your PR application will then be processed within the next 6 months.

You must use Express Entry to apply for:
• The Federal Skilled Worker Program (FSW)
• The Federal Skilled Trades Program (FST)
• The Canadian Experience Class (CEC)

Once you submit a profile, your profile will be entered into a pool (group) of all the people who have currently applied for Express Entry.

You will then be ranked against other people in the pool. Your ranking is based on the number of points you have.

If you are at the top of the rankings, your profile will be drawn (selected) from the list of applications. You will then get an Invitation to Apply (ITA) for permanent residence as a skilled immigrant.
