The Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship Canada (IRCC)–the visa and immigration body running the show for the nation–has launched an ‘Express Entry’ Visa programme, to facilitate the smooth migration of the trained manpower to the country, and simplify and improve the pace of the entire process.

Launched in January 2015, the Express Entry Immigration Programme strives to make the entire immigration process simple and hassle-free, and, of course, speedy. It is a simple process in which the applicants must create and complete an online profile, post which the concerned immigration officers will shortlist the candidates based on a point system.

Your eligibility is essentially based on your age, work experience, skills, language proficiency and educational background. Don’t get disheartened if you think you lack strength in some or any of the factors mentioned above! The IRCC will judge your online profile and award points to you for immigration.

Pointless to say, the higher your points, the better are your chance of receiving an ITA to submit an application for a visa. However, if you are somewhat worried about meeting the eligibility, it is advisable to consult a professional immigration consultant or specialist, who can guide you through the process and share insights about receiving enough points, to make your migration smooth.

Now let’s talk about the point based system to give you more clarity on the topic!

Every applicant must meet the eligibility criteria of one of the three immigration programmes which are the Federal Skilled Workers Programme (FSWP), the Federal Skilled Trades Programme (FSTP), or the Canadian Experience Class (CEC), by creating your online profile. As discussed, the candidates with the highest express points out of 1200 will receive an ITA for a visa.

For example, if you want to migrate to the overseas destination, a minimum 67 points out of 100 for the FSWP is required for every applicant.
