Express Entry is an online system used to manage applications from skilled workers seeking permanent residence in Canada. Eligibility is determined by factors including work experience, education, language ability, and age — scored using the Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS). We assess your profile and guide you through the full process.
How long does a Canadian immigration application take?
Processing times vary by program. Express Entry applications are typically processed within 6 months of receiving an Invitation to Apply (ITA). Work and study permits generally take 4–16 weeks, while family sponsorship can take 12–24 months. We work to ensure your application is complete and well-documented to minimize delays.
Can I bring my family when I immigrate to Canada?
Yes. Most Canadian immigration pathways allow you to include your spouse or common-law partner and dependent children in your application. Once you become a permanent resident or citizen, you may also sponsor other family members through the Family Sponsorship program.
Do I need a job offer to apply for Express Entry?
A valid job offer from a Canadian employer can add significant points to your CRS score, but it is not a requirement. Many candidates receive Invitations to Apply (ITAs) based on high CRS scores alone. Our consultants will evaluate your profile and advise the best strategy.
What's the difference between a work permit and permanent residence?
A work permit is a temporary authorization that allows a foreign national to work in Canada for a specific period and employer (or open work permit). Permanent residence (PR) grants the right to live, work, and study anywhere in Canada indefinitely, with a path to citizenship after 3 years.
Are you regulated consultants? Is it safe to hire you?
Yes. Our director is a fully regulated member of the RCIC (Regulated Canadian Immigration Consultants) — the government body that oversees immigration and citizenship consulting in Canada. You can verify our credentials on the official RCIC member search at college-ic.ca. Working with a regulated consultant ensures you receive legal, ethical immigration advice.
