Canada has a point-based immigration
system in which those applicants who archive the minimum point score are
selected from the immigration pool for relocation. Almost every program and
Subcategory of Canada Immigration is point-based. And these quantifications of
credentials have been a widely accepted model of migration in Canada.
Since its introduction express entry
program has been a popular model for Canadian immigration. The introduction of
the program can be considered a masterstroke by the Canadian government to get
skilled foreign workers in Canada faster so that another growing economy does
not wrap them up. There are three subcategories under the express entry
program-
• Federal
Skilled Workers Program (FSWP)
• Federal
Skilled Traders Program (FSTP)
• Canadian
Experience Class (CEC)
Federal Skilled Workers Program (FSWP)
The most widely accepted Subcategory in
the above stream is the Federal Skilled Workers Program(FSWP) which asks for a
67-point yardstick to select the applications for Canadian immigration. That
means that all those candidates who will secure 67 points out of 100 in their
own point calculation grid will be eligible for Canadian immigration through
the Federal Skilled Workers Program(FSWP). The points in the Federal Skilled Workers
Program (FSWP) are calculated as per the applicant's age, language, education,
work experience, and adaptability. Let us look at these factors in detail
below:
• Age – The applicants who are aged between 18 to 35 are in the prime of their life and are the highest score runners in this category.
• Language
- The language is tested before an
applicant migrated, and Canada's two official languages are English and French.
The English language is tested through IELTS and the French language through
TEF. The applicants who secure a minimum of 6 Band are in the running and can
secure decent points for Canadian immigration. The point allocation is
different for different band scores, and the higher you score in language, the
better it is for the applicant.
• Work
Experience: The applicant should have sufficient work experience to migrate to
Canada. The higher the work experience, the better chances of immigration there
are as then the applicant will be liable for higher score points.
• Education:
The applicant's education should be on par with the occupation to which the
candidate has applied. Further, having a master's or doctorate degree can help
the candidate have maximum points in the immigration category.
• Points:
Apart from the above requirements, one of the main requirements for Canadian
immigration in the Federal Skilled Workers Program (FSWP) is the attainment of
67 points out of 100 in the point calculation.
All those applicants who meet the point
mentioned above score requirement and others are eligible for Canada
immigration through this Subcategory of the Express Entry program. They will
receive the ITA (Invitation to Apply), which should be responded to in 60 days.
