More on FSWP
How does it work
The FSWP will be the best option you have if you have never lived, studied and worked in Canada.
First step check to verify if you meet the requirements for the FSWP. You then create your Express Entry profile with IRCC. A CRS score will then be assigned to you based on your age, education, language proficiency, and work experience, among other things.
The Canadian government holds Express Entry lotteries regularly every two weeks, asking those with the highest CRS scores to apply for permanent residency. You can anticipate receiving your permanent residency status within six months of filing your completed application, at which point you can relocate to Canada.
