What is an Express Entry Pathway?

Express Entry, introduced in 2015, is a system designed to aid Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) in identifying highly educated applicants for economic immigration eligible for permanent residence. The system assesses candidates from the Federal Skilled Worker Program, Federal Skilled Trades Program, and Canadian Experience Class using the Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS). It considers factors such as job history, occupation, language proficiency, education, age, and other transferable skills. Candidates with the highest CRS scores are typically more likely to receive an Invitation to Apply (ITA) for permanent residency.

Will the CRS no longer be used for Express Entry in 2024?

While the IRCC is anticipated to shift its focus to target applicants based on specific in-demand qualities in Canada’s economy, the CRS score will still be a crucial factor in Express Entry draws in 2024. Candidates will continue to receive invitations without consideration of specific categories, encompassing both general and program-specific draws. Express Entry pool candidates meeting category requirements will be ranked, and top candidates will be invited to apply for permanent residence.

What will be the Canada PR processing time in 2024?

The processing time for Canada Permanent Resident (PR) applications varies based on factors such as the PR program, application completeness, processing volume, and additional security or medical checks. The entire Canada PR processing time ranges from 12 to 24 months, involving stages from receiving the Invitation to Apply (ITA) to obtaining the Confirmation of Permanent Residence (COPR) and relocating to Canada, each with recorded processing times.

What will be the Canada PR fee/cost via Express Entry 2024?

The primary application fee for Express Entry in 2024 will be CAD $850, with an additional landing fee of CAD $515 for the applicant, and the same for the second applicant. The cost for a dependent child is $230, and individuals aged 14 to 79 must pay CAD $85 for biometrics.
