Express Entry

According to Business Development Canada (BDC), the Canada’s 2021 economic outlook is similar to that of other developed countries:  After the largest economic contraction since 1945 (a dip we estimate at 5.5% of GDP), the economy should grow sufficiently to largely offset the losses of 2020.

BDC also stated that strong consumption and a rebound in exports will give the Canadian economy a boost. In addition, bringing forward government investment projects should also provide a tailwind to Canadian economic growth.

The main objective of the Express Entry system is to cater for Canada’s demand for skilled workers and professionals. As a growing economy with abundant natural resources, there is a critical need for highly-qualified workers to meet increase labour demand.

Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada – IRCC (previously known as Citizenship and  Immigration Canada or CIC) created an online system known as Express Entry to manage the immigration process for bringing skilled professionals into Canada. The system began on January 1st, 2015.

The purpose of the express entry is to aid and manage applications for permanent residence under the following federal economic immigration programs:

  • Federal Skilled Worker Class (previously known as – The Federal Skilled Worker Program)
  • Federal Skilled Trades Class (previously known as The Federal Skilled Trades Program)
  • Canadian Experience Class
  • Provinces and territories can also recruit candidates from the Canada Express Entry Pool through their Provincial Nominee Programs to meet local labor market needs.

The system is electronic-based, online and has increased the efficiency of the immigration application process.
