What is Express Entry Program for Canada?
The Express Entry program is one of Canada’s primary ways of accepting highly skilled workers into the country, giving you the opportunity to work and live in Canada with permanent residence. Once you apply in the express entry system, you are given a comprehensive ranking system (CRS) score. The higher your score is, the more eligible you are for permanent residence.
The program focuses on skilled workers, allotting a point system based on your work experience, industry, education level, age, language skills, and other key elements. Once the assessment is complete, you get your CRS score. Mayur Immigration Consultancy helps you understand your score and make informed decisions about how you can increase this score for better immigration chances.

Express Entry is an electronic management system of application processing for permanent residence as a skilled worker which allows for quicker processing times averaging around 6 months. The system allows IRCC to efficiently manage the number and type of skilled worker applications by creating pool of qualified candidates. Top listed candidates receive an invitation to apply (ITA) for permanent residence.
