Fast-Track Your Canadian Permanent Residency with White Swan Immigration Consultants – Your Trusted Express Entry Experts in British Columbia
The Express Entry system is one of Canada’s most efficient and competitive pathways for skilled immigration. Launched in 2015 by Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC), Express Entry manages applications for three key federal economic immigration programs: the Federal Skilled Worker Program (FSWP), the Canadian Experience Class (CEC), and the Federal Skilled Trades Program (FSTP).
At White Swan Immigration Consultants, based in Richmond, BC, we provide end-to-end support to skilled professionals from around the world seeking permanent residency in Canada through the Express Entry system. With years of experience, in-depth knowledge of Canadian immigration regulations, and personalized service, we guide you through each step to maximize your chances of receiving an Invitation to Apply (ITA).
What is Express Entry?
Express Entry is a points-based application management system. Candidates are assessed using the Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS), which awards points for factors such as age, education, work experience, language proficiency (IELTS/CELPIP), Canadian experience, and adaptability.
Eligible candidates enter the Express Entry pool and await selection through regular IRCC draws. Candidates with the highest CRS scores or those who qualify under category-based selections are invited to apply for permanent residence.
Who is Eligible for Express Entry?
To be eligible for the Express Entry system, you must meet the requirements of at least one of the following programs:
- Federal Skilled Worker Program (FSWP) – for skilled professionals with foreign work experience.
- Canadian Experience Class (CEC) – for those with at least one year of skilled work experience in Canada.
- Federal Skilled Trades Program (FSTP) – for tradespeople with work experience in qualifying occupations.
Additional criteria include:
- Language test results (IELTS/CELPIP for English, TEF/TCF for French)
- Educational Credential Assessment (ECA) for foreign degrees
- Sufficient proof of settlement funds (except for CEC and those with job offers)
2025 Express Entry Updates – What You Need to Know
Canada continues to refine its Express Entry program to better align with labor market needs. As of 2025, the following changes are in effect:
- Category-Based Draws: IRCC now holds targeted draws focusing on in-demand occupations such as healthcare, STEM, agriculture, trades, and French-language proficiency.
- Higher Cut-Off Scores in General Draws: CRS cut-offs have become more competitive due to an increased number of applicants.
- Priority for Canadian Experience: Candidates with Canadian work or study experience receive a significant advantage.
- Updated Settlement Fund Requirements: Applicants must show increased financial resources to reflect cost-of-living adjustments.
