Main Pathways to Canada PR (Skilled Workers)
1) Express Entry
Programs inside Express Entry:
-
Federal Skilled Worker Program (FSWP)
-
Canadian Experience Class (CEC)
-
Federal Skilled Trades Program (FSTP)
How Express Entry works:
-
Check eligibility (age, education, work experience, language).
-
Complete ECA (Education Credential Assessment).
-
Take an approved language test (IELTS General or CELPIP; French: TEF/TCF).
-
Create your Express Entry profile and enter the CRS pool.
-
Receive an Invitation to Apply (ITA) if your CRS meets draw cut-off.
-
Submit your PR application with documents and fees.
-
Biometrics, medicals, and background checks → PR decision.
CRS Score Factors (high impact):
-
Age (18–35 ideal), education, language scores, skilled work experience.
-
Spousal factors and additional points (French, Canadian education/work, arranged employment, provincial nomination +600 points).
Our edge: We boost CRS through French add-ons, spouse strategy, provincial targeting, and job-offer pathways where viable.
2) Provincial Nominee Programs (PNP)
Targeted programs run by provinces to fill local talent gaps. Many align with Express Entry.
Popular streams:
-
OINP (Ontario) – Human Capital Priorities, Tech Draws.
-
BC PNP (British Columbia) – Tech, Skilled Worker.
-
Alberta Advantage Immigration Program (AAIP) – In-demand occupations.
-
Saskatchewan (SINP) – Occupations In-Demand & Express Entry.
-
Manitoba, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, PEI – Skilled Worker & Express Entry streams.
-
Quebec – Separate system with its own selection criteria.
Why PNP: Even with a modest CRS, a nomination adds +600 points, practically guaranteeing an ITA.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q1. What IELTS score do I need?
For FSW, aim for CLB 9 (IELTS Listening 8.0; Reading 7.0; Writing 7.0; Speaking 7.0) to significantly boost CRS. Lower scores can still work with PNP or other points.
Q2. Can I apply with my spouse and children?
Yes. Spouse factors can add points; dependent children can be included.
Q3. Is a job offer mandatory?
No. Express Entry doesn’t require a job offer (it only adds extra points). Several PNP streams also don’t require job offers.
Q4. How much money do I need to show?
Proof of funds depends on family size and is updated annually. We’ll guide you on acceptable formats and exemptions.
Q5. Can I apply after age 40+?
Yes. Points reduce with age, but PNP and French can offset. We’ll build a tailored plan.
Q6. Do gaps in employment affect eligibility?
Not usually, if your qualifying experience meets program rules and duties. We help you document gaps clearly.
