Canada has a cutting edge program for managing intake of all federal economic class applications!
Canada is now considering potential applicants from all highly skilled occupations, there are no demand lists or priority lists based on your specific occupation.
Express Entry is by far the most complex system Canada has used for selecting Permanent Residents.
It’s designed to manage the flow of candidates into three different application streams.
Applicants create a profile on the Express Entry system; if they meet the criteria for one of these three programs, they are entered into the pool of candidates.
These candidates are then electronically scored under the “Comprehensive Ranking System” point scale based primarily on:
Applicants can score up to:
Canada’s Provincial Nomination Programs are being given an extra number of certificates to use in a similar manner, choosing those candidates from the pool who meet their labour market requirements. The Government of Ontario has created an Express Entry Stream called Human Capital Priorities.
High scoring individuals can receive an “Invitation to Apply” very quickly.
Instead of using the traditional first-come first-serve selection process, implementing this process allows CIC to pick the highest ranking applicants each time.
Applicants are no longer assured that they will be able to make a full permanent residence application, nor is there a specific pass mark that will get them to the top of the pile. Because the ranking is competitive, the score needed to receive an “Invitation to Apply” will change depending on the candidates who are being ranked.

Once invited, applicants will have only 90 days to prepare and submit a full application for permanent residence. Thorough preparation is the key.
