What is Express Entry System?

Express Entry is a streamlined application management system used by the Canadian government to select skilled workers for permanent residency. It operates on a points-based system, where candidates are awarded, points based on factors such as education, work experience, language proficiency, and adaptability. The highest-scoring candidates are invited to apply for permanent residency. This system aims to attract skilled workers who can contribute to the Canadian economy and enhance its labor force.

The Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) score is expected to decline in future category-based Express Entry draws.
