Permanent
residency is a type of immigration status in Canada. In order to become a
permanent resident, a person must go through an immigration program. The most
popular immigration pathway for permanent residents is economic immigration,
which includes the Express Entry System, though a lot of permanent
residents are also�sponsored by their spouse or parent�who already
has status in Canada.
Express Entry is an application management system
for three major Canadian economic immigration programs:
If one is �eligible to apply to any of these programs, he/she
can submit an Expression of Interest (EOI), often referred to as a profile, to
the Express Entry system. Once his/her profile is submitted, he/she is
automatically assigned a�Comprehensive Ranking System�(CRS) score.
Approximately every two weeks, the Canadian
government conducts a draw where they issue�invitations to apply�(ITAs)
for Canadian permanent residence to the highest-ranking profiles in the pool of
Express Entry candidates.
Upon receiving an ITA, candidates can then
submit a complete application for Canadian permanent residence, which will be
processed within four to six months.
