Express Entry Program

The Express Entry program is a point-based immigration system that helps skilled professionals get a PR. It is one of the fastest and best immigration pathways for Canadian immigration. The factors that affect your Express Entry profile are age, language proficiency, work experience, and others.

The Express Entry Provincial Nominee Program (PNP) draws help the provinces to select skilled workers who can fulfill the economic and labour needs. For example - a province might focus on certain occupations such as IT, healthcare, or construction.

There are three different types of rounds of invitations under the Express Entry Program such as:-

• General rounds of invitations
• Program-specific rounds of invitations
• Category-based rounds of invitations

If you were not invited to this draw, then your profile remains active in the Express Entry pool for 12 months from the date of submission. You should not withdraw your application as you may receive an ITA in the next Express Entry draw.

Currently, 80% of Canada PR applications under the Express Entry program are being processed within 6 months.
