Those with the highest score or above the average CRS score will receive an Invitation to Apply (ITA) for permanent residency.
To qualify for express entry to Canada, you will have to meet the criteria of 1 of 3 main Express Entry Programs – each with different Express Entry application requirements based on your skill level:
Federal Skilled Worker Program (FSWP) – for highly-skilled professionals, e.g., doctors, architects, and accountants.
Federal Skilled Trade Program (FSTP) – for semi-skilled workers in trade industries, e.g., construction, electrical, processing and manufacturing.
Canadian Experience Class (CEC) Program – for individuals with at least one year of Canadian work experience in the last five years.
Please note: The FSWP requires applicants to score at least 67 out of a possible 100 points in its preliminary eligibility assessment.
Step 1: Determine which Express Entry program you qualify for - an eligibility assessment is the best way to do this.
Step 2: Create an Express Entry profile - applicants must apply online via the government website.
Step 3: Gather supporting documentation - you may need documents like your passport, education qualifications, resume and work experience documentation to complete the application form.
Step 4: Receive Your ITA - If successful in your Express Entry application, you’ll get an invitation to apply, or ITA, for permanent residency (PR).
Step 5: Apply For Permanent Residency - Once you have your ITA, you’ll have 90 days to apply for Canada PR.
