Posted by Richard Pierce on December 26th, 2019

After 2015, Canada has introduced several new policies to welcome immigrants from India. It has become a more friendly country with its numerous settlement and citizenship programs.  A recent report on immigration, refugees and citizenship Canada (IRCC) has claimed to increase the number of offers to newcomers in-between 2018 to 2021. The potential growth, quality studies, and international destination for highly skilled workers have attracted people from everywhere to admit as a Canada PR.

Canada's express entry system has abolished the first-come, first-served method of permitting to be a permanent resident of Canada. There are several countries, for example, the U.S, follow the traditional process of express entry.

Along with the termination of first come, first served policy; a few other changes have been also included. Previously, immigration applicants used to choose the immigration program as they thought to fit the best. But recently, the immigration consultants have changed the pattern. Now, the applicants have to fill an online form applying for the same. Then, an automated electronic application management system refines the forms of their own and drops it to the best-fitted immigration program for them.

Express entry Canada from India has introduced a point-based system; mainly known as the Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) to create an online job portal to find suitable and potential candidates from the immigration pool. The immigrants, who receive job offers from the portal; also receive some extra points.  The CRS system is based on the educational qualifications, experience, skills along with other characters.

World Education Services (WES), along with other educational organizations has been assigned by IRCC to provide Educational Credential Assessments (ECA) to screen the skilled potential immigrants. From the applications of immigrants to WES for an ECA, WES has learned more about the skilled immigrants in Canada. This new Express entry Canada from India has made it easier to pick a suitable citizen. The  WES also analyzes the IRCC-ECA applicant's purpose for opting for Canada PR along with their career goals, motivations, service needs, and educational plans. The WES surveys the applicants every year since 2014 and the average response rate is 8 percent.

The latest express entry Canada also monitors the rate of male to female immigration applications. The January 2018 report says that the female applicants are 35 percent, which is similar to the data of the WES saying 37 percent female applicants.

The new express entry also helps to keep tabs on the most preferred locations of Canada among the immigrants. Such as, the first choice is Ontario with 50 percent, followed by British Columbia and Alberta with 14 percent each. 

This also helps to keep a close eye on the rate of single to married immigration applicants in Canada. The rate of single people applying for permanent residential-ship is way higher than married people. The students, who are applying for better educational qualifications, end up staying in Canada permanently. The studies show that the 14 percent growth of residents is due to international students.
