EXPRESS ENTRY TO CANADA

• Express entry is the most viewed as well as the
  most preferred pathway for people seeking a
  permanent residence in Canada.
• This is one of the process where the candidate
  will be evaluated for the express entry visa, if
  the candidate is found qualified, then they are
  considered an express entry visa candidate.
• How Express Entry System Works?
• Canada express entry program is processed in a
  timeframe of six months to a year. Right from
  submitting your application for express entry to
  Canada until you get the ITA (Invitation to
  Apply). Not all applications will end up in the
  same manner, it varies with each and every
  candidate.
• You have to start the process by submitting your
  profile in the express entry pool.
• Your profile will be assessed by the Canadian
  immigration authorities in the Canada express
  entry program and you will be granted CRS
  (Comprehensive Ranking Score).
• If your CRS is adequate enough for the express
  entry draw, you will eventually receive the
• ITA (Invitation to Apply)
• After receiving the ITA, you have to submit the
  required documents needed for the PR (permanent
  resident) within 60 days.
• Your profile will remain in the express entry
  pool for 12 months.
• Post submission of the candidates documents, the
  immigration authorities will issue the PR visa
  within six months or less.
• COMPREHENSIVE RANKING SCORE (CRS)
• The Express Entry Application uses CRS system in
  order to valuate and allocates points for each
  candidate and rank them accordingly in the
  express entry pool.
• CRS plays a vital role in assessing youre
• Skill set
• Educational standards

• WHAT CAN BE DONE TO INCREASE YOUR CRS SCORE?
• IELTS
• Having a high IELTS score is the first step to
  success, the good IELTS score in your profile
  will add up to 160 points. IELTS score with
  post-secondary education up to Canadian standards
  means another 50 points in your scorecard. All
  along with at least three years of work
  experience is yet another 50 points. In case,
  your IELTS score is on the risky side. You can
  still take another IELTS and update your recent
  scores in your profile which is active in the
  Express Entry visa program to Canada
• This is one among the added advantage in order to
  score more for the Express Entry visa program to
  Canada.
• WORK EXPERIENCE
• Most of the Immigrants who apply for the Express
  Entry program are skilled workers, your work
• experience also plays a pivotal role in the CRS
  scores. More years of work experience mean more
  points.
• Canadian Experience will automatically make you a
  more preferred candidate amongst the other
  candidates. For e.g., if at all a candidate is
  eligible, yet he/she is inexperienced. They
  should try entering Canada as a temporary worker
  or a student. Since, Canadian Experience holds
  more weightage than foreign country experience.
• Most of the time, candidates undervalue their
  work experience in different fields. Express
  entry to Canada uses a system called NOC
  (National Occupation Classification) to segregate
  the available jobs based on each skill. Choosing
  the appropriate NOC code increases the overall
  score.
• After choosing the right NOC code, you will have
  to prove your work experience. According to the
  NOC, if you receive the invitation to apply for
  permanent residence, so the candidate should
• be pretty cautious while choosing the NOC code
  for his/her occupation.
• SPOUSE
• If you are accompanied by a spouse or common
  law partner for this program, you can claim some
  more points for your profile. However, this is
  not the case with all candidates.

• They can get you more points by getting an ECA
  (Educational Credential Assessment) for their
  formal education, or even retaking the language
  test.
• You might have a higher CRS score as an
  individual. Your profile score depends on your
  spouse or partner accompanying you, you may get
  an increased score if you list them as non
  accompanying. After receiving the PR, sponsoring
  them to join you in Canada is still an available
  option with certain conditions.
• If your spouse has a more sound profile than you.
  You should calculate their score, and if their
  profile is the predominant one between the two.
  They can take the lead and submit their profile,
  instead of yours.
• If both of you are independently strong
  candidates, you can submit separate profiles to
  the express entry pool and claim each other as
  accompanying. It increases the rate of success.
• JOB OFFER
• A Job offer from a private company or through the
  Canadian Job bank is highly beneficial for a
• candidate with a challenging CRS Score. Job offer
  from an employer within the Canadian Province
  can get you anything from 50 to 200 additional
  points, which is actually a boon for any
  candidate.
• PROVINCIAL NOMINATION
• This is quite different from the other Express
  Entry programs in Canada. Yet, it has its own
  perks and benefits. If you are availing a
  nomination from a Canadian province, which means
  its another 600 points to your profile. Many
  provinces have nomination programs which are
  similar to express entry. It all comes down to
  the candidate to select the appropriate program
  for a PR
• visa in Canada.
