Express Entry System: Fast-tracking Canada PR
The Express Entry (EE) System is Canada’s most popular immigration pathway. And the reason for its popularity is that it selects a large number of applicants in each draw. So, if you want to get Canada PR then this pathway is the best for you. To do the same you must first create your online EE profile and submit all details required. But you must check your eligibility to apply to the EE sub-stream. Under the EE system, you can apply to 1 of the 3 EE sub-streams such as:
- Federal Skilled Worker Program (FWSP)
- Federal Skilled Trades Program (FSTP)
- Canadian Experience Class (CEC)
Once you apply to the EE sub-stream you qualify for, your profile will enter an EE pool. Here, as per the details of your profile, you will get a CRS rank/score. This rank/score is calculated under the Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS). Further, Canada holds periodic immigration draws where a CRS cut-off is shared and applicants who meet the minimum CRS score requirement get an ITA to apply for permanent residence in Canada. Once you get an ITA in a draw, you have 60 days to submit a complete Canada PR application.
