Canada’s Express Entry system is the primary pathway for skilled workers to apply for permanent residence (PR). It is a points-based system that manages applications under several economic immigration programs. Candidates are ranked using the Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS). The highest-ranking candidates may receive an Invitation to Apply (ITA) for permanent residence.
Express Entry currently manages three main federal immigration programs and also conducts targeted category-based draws to invite candidates with specific skills or experience.
