Express Entry Canadian Immigration Points Revealed

Express Entry Canada Immigration points system revealed before Jan. 1 launch. 'In demand' immigrants will be in Canada within 6 months.

With one month left to the launch of a new immigration system that will give skilled immigrants express entry into Canada, the government has made public for the first time the details of the points system it will use to select foreign workers.While the government is promising the new system will have "in demand" immigrants in Canada within six months.

]Starting Jan. 1, skilled immigrants will be matched with vacant jobs where there are no available Canadian workers. After applying online and registering with the government's job bank, applicants will be entered into a pool. Only the candidates with the most points will be offered permanent residency.
A maximum of 600 points will be given to skilled immigrants who receive a permanent job offer from a Canadian employer or who have been nominated for immigration by a province or territory.
Immigration Minister Chris Alexander said these are the ones that will be "picked first," in a written statement on Monday. He also noted the so-called "first draw" for permanent residency applications is scheduled for the last week of January.
Skilled immigrants will receive up to 1,200 points based on factors in two other categories:
  • A maximum of 500 points will be allotted for what the government is calling "core human capital factors" such as age, education level, language proficiency and work experience in Canada.
  • A maximum of 100 points will be assigned for "skill transferability factors," which include a combination of education level, foreign work experience and a certificate in the trades.
For instance, a maximum of 110 points will be allotted for age. Only those aged 20 to 29 will receive the maximum points in this category, while those aged 17 and under or 45 and over will obtain zero points.

Similarly, an applicant with the equivalent of a PhD will receive 150 points — the maximum allotted for level of education. Applicants with the equivalent of a high school diploma will only receive 30 points.

Canada - One of the Top Immigration Destination


Immigration plays a big role to shape and develop the economy of a country. It enlarges the social fabric and does contribute greatly to the growth of labor market.

One of the best destinations in the world today is Canada. With the beautiful scenery, diversified culture, excellent public services and economic stability of Canada, one should not be surprised to know that many aspire to migrate and be part of the kaleidoscope of Canada.

Immigration opportunities in Canada are available for newcomers as well as for experienced people. Besides the high standard of living, healthcare and tax benefits, quality education facilities and the democratic government there ensure great opportunities for the immigrants and settlers. Furthermore, with an advanced industrial society in Canada, the market of Canada is regarded as an affluent one. It has outperformed that of other developed countries such as that of USA, UK, Norway, Sweden, Singapore, Denmark, Ireland, and Hong Kong, New Zealand, etc. The rating in property, taxes, stock performance, financial freedom, personal freedom, corruption, and technology are so fabulous in Canada that these hold the key to businesses there. Additionally, companies in Canada are more willing to devote their effort and time to sponsor work visas for the people who have executive level of advisory experience. Canada is indeed a great place to make your dream come true.

The country welcomes numerous immigrants every year to Canada despite its recent economic downturn. The newcomers get benefited from the perks of living in Canada. The country offers the best social and medical benefits, and hence it is home to the largest number of aging population in the universe. The country will only have two working Canadians for each retiree by 2020.

Canada is one of the safest countries for business investments. This shows how much economically stable Canada is! The leading economy of the country is managed by some enterprising people who have business friendly leanings.

Express Entry (New Electronic System for Canadian Immigration) in Jan, 2015

In January 2015, Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC) will launch a new electronic system called Express Entry to manage applications for permanent residence in certain economic programs. Canada needs high levels of immigration to meet current and future labour market needs, which will ensure our economic growth and long-term prosperity. 

Express Entry will allow CIC to actively recruit, assess and select skilled immigrants under the following federal economic immigration programs:
  • the Federal Skilled Worker Program,
  • the Federal Skilled Trades Program, and
  • the Canadian Experience Class.
Provinces and territories will also be able to recruit candidates from the Express Entry system for a portion of the Provincial Nominee Programs to meet local labour market needs. Under this new system, employers will also have a key role in selecting economic immigrants. Employers will access candidates through Canada's new and improved Job Bank and through provinces and territories where applicable.

The Express Entry system involves two steps:

Step 1) Potential candidates complete an online Express Entry profile

Potential candidates will complete an online Express Entry profile where they will provide information about their skills, work experience, language ability, education, and other details. Those who meet the criteria of one of the federal economic immigration programs subject to Express Entry will be placed in a pool of candidates.

Candidates will be ranked against others in the pool. Only the highest-ranked candidates (those deemed to have the best chances for economic success), and those with qualifying offers of arranged employment or provincial/territorial nominations, will be invited to apply for permanent residence. 
 
If a candidate does not already have a valid job offer from a Canadian employer or a provincial/territorial nomination, he or she must register with the Government of Canada's Job Bank which will connect him or her with eligible Canadian employers. 

Where applicable, employers will be required to obtain a Labour Market Impact Assessment from Employment and Social Development Canada. There will be no fee for Labour Market Impact Assessments for permanent residence applications under the Express Entry system. 
Completing an online Express Entry profile does not guarantee that a candidate will receive an Invitation to Apply for permanent residence.

Step 2) Citizenship and Immigration Canada will invite certain candidates to apply for permanent residence and process their electronic applications within six months.

Candidates will receive an Invitation to Apply for permanent residence if they rank among the top in the pool, based on their skills and experience. Candidates who have a valid job offer from a Canadian employer (subject to the Labour Market Impact Assessment process in place at that time) or have been nominated by a province or territory will be given high scores in the ranking system.
Candidates will have 60 days to submit an electronic application for permanent residence through one of the following programs:
  • Federal Skilled Worker Program (FSWP);
  • Federal Skilled Trades Program (FSTP);
  • Canadian Experience Class (CEC); or,
  • A portion of the Provincial Nominee Program (PNP)
Citizenship and Immigration Canada will process the majority of complete applications (i.e. applications including all the necessary supporting documents) within six months or less.
Candidates in the Express Entry pool who do not receive an Invitation to Apply for permanent residence after 12 months may resubmit their profile and re-enter the pool if they still meet the criteria. This provision will prevent backlogs and ensure quick processing times.
Express Entry will result in faster and more efficient service to potential skilled immigrants. It will also allow the Government of Canada to be more flexible and responsive to Canada's changing economic conditions and priorities.
