Skilled Worker Immigration to Canada
On 01st January 2015, Citizenship and Immigration Canada has set a faster and unique process to welcome aspiring skilled professionals from any part of the world to meet their Immigration needs by introducing Express Entry System, a comprehensive online Electronic Visa Processing method.
The Introduction of Express Entry System has significantly reduced the processing time of all visa applications to a maximum of 12 months. Express Entry System covers almost all the occupation sectors than its predecessor Immigration version. It is a merit-based selection system where the qualified applicants will be invited based on factors like Age, Qualification, Work Experience, English Language Proficiency etc.
Applicants who meet the above-mentioned components would be eligible to create an electronic Express Entry profile. Applicants who receive a valid employment offer from a Canadian Employer or a Provincial Nomination Invitation will immediately be granted an Invitation to Apply (ITA) upon submission from the Canadian Immigration Department.
