Express Entry Permanent Resident Visa for Skilled Workers

From January 2015, Skilled Foreign Workers can access to Express Entry — a new electronic application management system — which has been applied to Canada’s key economic immigration programs as below:

  • Federal Skilled Worker Program (FSWP)

  • Federal Skilled Trader Program (FSTP)

  • Canadian Experience Class (CEC) and

  • A portion of the Provincial Nominee Program (PNP)

Background

Express Entry is not a new immigration program; it is a new way for Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC) to manage economic immigration application online. Express Entry provides employers with access to skilled foreign nationals whom they can consider for a permanent position when they are unable to fill a position with a Canadian or permanent resident.

For prospective skilled foreign workers, Express Entry results in faster processing times.

Express Entry: Changes how Canada selects skilled immigrants:

Moving from the old system…

  • First applicant In, first to be processed;

  • Difficult to navigate the immigration system due to multiple players;

  • Recruitment of global talent at employer time and expense;

  • Average of 18-24 month to process and application.

To Express Entry

  • CIC will select candidates that are most likely to succeed in Canada, rather than the first in line;

  • Express Entry candidates with a valid job offer or PNP nomination will quickly be invited to apply (ITA) for permanent residence;

  • The new Job Bank will connect Canadian employers with a pool of skilled foreign national candidates if they can’t find Canadians or permanent resident to do the job;

  • Express Entry candidates will benefit from processing times of six months or less.*

The New Two-Step Application Process for PR Applicants

Summary

  • No Occupational list as before. Anyone can apply based on Education and Experience.

  • Making it easier for Canadian Employers to find the candidates they need to fill available positions

  • Bringing skilled newcomers to Canada faster by eliminating backlogs and introducing 6 to 8 month processing times
