EXPRESS ENTRY

EXPRESS ENTRY?

Express Entry is an application management system used by Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) to manage and process applications received through three of Canada’s federal economic immigration programs for skilled workers.

Candidates are ranked against one another based on their age, education, language proficiency, work experience, and other factors in a max 1200-point score system (CRS score).
