Learn how to enter the express entry pool

When it comes to Canada immigration as a permanent resident, Express Entry is such a familiar term that everybody hears it enough of times to start identifying it closely with the process.

So, let me put this briefly, Express Entry is a system managed and operated by the Federal Government of Canada. It is an online system, that accepts and processes Canada PR applications completely online.

Being an online system, it is completely transparent and free of any bias. You can log your application anytime into the system as it is online and available all the time – a huge advantage over paper-based applications.

This is the primary reason why it is called 'Express Entry'. It allows applications to be processed much faster and efficiently in comparison to paper-based applications.

However, for the success of your application, it is crucial to follow the correct application process and submit all the required documents and information correctly. In absence of that, your application is likely to experience avoidable delays and may even be rejected.

Let us now quickly get down to Express Entry pool.

What is an Express Entry pool?

An Express Entry pool is a pool in which only those candidates get entry who are eligible for seeking Canada PR visa. Under Express Entry, you can apply for Canada PR through one of the following economic immigration programs:

• Federal Skilled Worker Program (FSWP)

• Federal Skilled Trades Program (FSTP)

• Canadian Experience Class (CEC)

As a skilled worker – Federal Skilled Worker Program (FSWP) will be most suitable for you.

How would you enter the Express Entry pool?

That is simple and to put shortly – by creating an Express Entry profile. You can create your Express Entry profile online by submitting the required information about your education, language proficiency, work experience, etc.

An important step that precedes the creation of your Express Entry profile, is checking your eligibility for one of the three economic immigration programs mentioned above.

You can create an Express Entry profile only if you are eligible for one of those programs. You can check your eligibility online on Canada immigration official website in a few minutes.

Please note that you will need to take a language test in English or French language and achieve the minimum required score prior to creating your Express Entry profile.

Also, for your education completed outside Canada, you will need to get an educational credential assessment (ECA) report from a competent body such as WES. That is required to check the equivalence of your foreign education with the Canadian educational standards.

Once, you have these, you can proceed to create your Express Entry profile. Please note that you must provide true and accurate information while creating your profile. Otherwise, this can later lead to your application being rejected and criminal proceedings being initiated.

What happens after you enter the Express Entry pool?

Once, you enter the Express Entry pool, you are ranked basis your CRS score. CRS stands for Comprehensive Ranking System that considers a number of factors to rank candidates in the pool. Those candidates who rank among the top candidates, are issued invitation to apply (ITA) for Canada PR in an Express Entry draw.

So, you can see understanding the Express Entry program isn’t after all as difficult as many people think. During the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, Express Entry 2020 is probably your best shot at becoming a permanent resident of Canada. The reason being – the CRS score requirement is going down continuously while the number of ITAs being issued is increasing.
