Express Entry is an application management system for three federal economic immigration programs: the Skilled Workers (Federal) Program, the Canadian Experience Class and the Skilled Trades Program. Candidates create a profile and receive a score based on the overall ranking system (SCG/CRS). The highest ranked candidates receive invitations to apply for permanent residence.
Deadlines vary depending on the program. For Express Entry, IRCC is aiming for processing in 6 months after submitting the full application. Provincial programs (PCP/PNP) can take 12 to 24 months. Delays are indicative and can vary greatly.
Yes, several programs do not require a job offer. Express Entry, for example, allows you to immigrate without a job offer if you have a sufficient SCG score. However, a job offer can add points to your profile.
It depends. A labor market impact study (LMIA/LMIA) is generally required, but there are many exemptions. For example, francophone mobility allows francophone workers to work outside Québec without LMIA. Intra-company transfers and some international agreements also offer exemptions.
An open work permit allows you to work for any employer in Canada, without being linked to a specific employer. It is available for certain categories, such as spouses of skilled workers or students, applicants for permanent residence, and international graduates (PTPP/PGWP).
It depends on your situation. If you have a valid work permit, you can continue to work. Some PR applicants may be eligible for an open work permit while processing their application, including applicants awaiting a final decision.
The Quebec Acceptance Certificate (CAQ) is a document issued by the Quebec government required for most international students wishing to study in this province. You must obtain the CAQ before applying for your study permit to IRCC.
Yes, most international students can work up to 24 hours per week during study sessions and full-time during official holidays. Specific rules apply, and you must maintain full-time student status.
The TPPD enables international graduates from designated Canadian institutions to work in Canada after their studies. The duration varies according to the length of the program (from 8 months to 3 years). It's a great way to gain the Canadian experience necessary for permanent residence.
Canadian citizens and permanent residents can sponsor their spouse/de facto spouse, their dependent children, and their parents/grandparents. In some limited cases, other family members may be sponsored (brothers, sisters, nephews, orphan nieces, etc.).
The processing of a spouse sponsorship application generally takes between 12 and 24 months, but the delays may vary. If your spouse is in Canada, he may be eligible for an open work permit during treatment.
The Parents and Grandparents (PGP) sponsorship program works with a system of interest to sponsor. During opening periods, citizens/RP submit their interest, and IRCC selects potential sponsors by draw. The selected sponsors must prove that they have the necessary income for the previous 3 years.
