Express Entry System

The Express Entry system is Canada’s main pathway for skilled immigrants who want to obtain permanent residence. It manages applications for three economic immigration programs:

  1. Federal Skilled Worker Program
  2. Federal Skilled Trades Program
  3. Canadian Experience Class

In the Express Entry system, candidates fill out an online profile detailing their skills, work experience,-language ability, education and other details relevant to their eligibility. They are then entered into a pool and awarded a score based on the Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS).

“The Express Entry system is an efficient way of managing applications and facilitating faster processing times.” – Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada

Indeed, the pursuit of these in-demand jobs can be viewed as part of a larger story – one of economic growth, migration, and opportunities that continue to shape Canada.
