Expressway to Immigrate to Canada:

The Express Entry system is one of the best immigration programs internationally. It was introduced in 2015 to fast-track the processing times for immigrant visa applications. The Express Entry allows new immigrants to apply for Canadian permanent residence through the following three economy class programs:

Federal Skilled Trades
Federal Skilled Worker
Canadian Experience Class

Express Entry system works for the benefit of all four: the federal government, the provincial government, the employers, most importantly, for the Canadian immigrants.

How to Apply for the Canada Express Entry?

The application process of Express Entry is simple and smooth. Firstly, an interested candidate must fulfill all the requirements to be eligible for this Canada Immigration System. Then, the eligible candidate has to submit his/her profile in the Express Entry pool. This profile acts as an Expression of Interest shown by the candidate for the permanent residency in Canada. Once a profile is submitted, the candidate is awarded a Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) score, which is eventually the determining factor for securing an Invitation to Apply (ITA) for permanent residence.

CRS score is dependent on the following factors:

Age
Education
Language proficiency
Foreign work experience
Canadian work experience
Canadian certificate of education

Higher the CRS score, the higher are chances to get an ITA for Canada PR.

Be forward-looking:

The Express Entry has reserved a target of welcoming 88,000 new immigrants in the year 2020. So, do not miss the opportunity and brace yourself for the coming express entry draws. And, candidates who have received an ITA for permanent residency in the recent draw must apply at the earliest.
