Fortunately, there are ample pathways for skilled professionals and their families to make the permanent move to Canada. With so many options it can be confusing or overwhelming to know where to start, or what the right program is for you.
Express Entry
Express Entry is one of the best ways to immigrate to Canada. Express Entry is also one of the fastest ways to move permanently to Canada from India. On average, IRCC processes Express Entry applications within six months.
Express Entry runs three economic immigration streams. The Federal Skilled Worker Program, the Canadian Experience Class, and the Federal Skilled Trades Program. To qualify for the Express Entry pool, you must fulfill the basic eligibility requirements of one of these three streams. Each program has its specific requirements.
Once you enter the pool, you will receive a Canada CRS score, and your profile will be ranked against other candidates in the pool. Only the highest-ranking applicants will get an invitation to apply (ITA).
Provincial Nominee Program (PNP)
Many Canadian provinces and territories run their provincial nominee programs to invite skilled workers from across the world. The programs aim to invite foreign nationals who have the skills and experience to contribute to a provincial economy and are willing to live in a specific province.
Each PNP has at least one immigration stream that is aligned with the federal Express Entry. Provincial nominations issued under the express entry are known as ‘enhanced nominations’. The most significant benefit of a PNP nomination is that it directly adds 600 comprehensive ranking system (CRS) to your existing score. Profiles with enhanced nominations are also processed faster, typically within six months.
Study in Canada
Another way to obtain a Canada PR visa from India is study in Canada. Canada is a popular study destination for international students. Not only does the country offer a lower tuition fee, but also provides them ample opportunities to work during their studies to gain some international experience.
After completing educations, international students are also eligible for a special post-study work permit that allows them to work for any employer, anywhere in Canada.
