Express Entry Canada
Express Entry is one of the fastest pathways to permanent residence in Canada. If you have skilled work experience, strong language ability, and the right qualifications, this system can help you secure an invitation to apply for permanent residence.
OVERVIEW
What is Express Entry?
Express Entry is an online immigration system used by the Government of Canada to manage applications for permanent residence under three main programs: the Federal Skilled Worker Program, the Federal Skilled Trades Program, and the Canadian Experience Class.
Candidates are ranked using the Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS), which assigns points based on factors such as age, education, language ability, and work experience. The highest-ranking candidates receive an Invitation to Apply (ITA) for permanent residence.
