The Express Entry system introduced by the Canada Government in 2015 has made Canada immigration process easier and faster for international skilled workers. Most of the immigration applications get processed under the Express Entry system within just six months.

However, the process of immigration to Canada involves so many procedures and steps. So if you already know the easiest pathways that would lead to permanent residence in Canada, it will increase the chances of your application’s success as well as help you to avoid unnecessary delays and obstructions in your Canada immigration journey. 

Top 5 easiest Canada immigration pathways

Here is a description of five major Canada immigration pathways that make Canada immigration easier:

   1.Canada Express Entry

The Express Entry system allows Canada to select skilled/qualified candidates for immigration to the country. The three economic immigration programs managed under the Express Entry are:

  • Federal Skilled Worker Program (FSWP)
  • The Federal Skilled Trades Program (FSTP)
  • The Canadian Experience Class (CEC)

A candidate eligible for any of these three programs may create an Express Entry profile. Each of these profiles are awarded a Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) score. It is a score out of 1200 points awarded after assessing the profiles based on various eligibility factors such as age, education, language proficiency, work experience, etc.

The Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada(IRCC) conducts Express Entry draws almost in every two weeks and the highest scoring candidates receive invitations to apply for permanent residence.

A person’s chances of success in the Express Entry system totally depend on their CRS score. If the person is able to score above the CRS cut-off score set for the Express Entry draws, they would receive an invitation to apply from IRCC.

The Express Entry system also allows the provinces and territories to select candidates from the Express Entry pool to meet the demands of their respective labour markets. 

   2.Family Class Sponsorship

Canada’s immigration policy gives the highest importance to family reunion. So if you have a close relative residing in Canada, it would be easier for you to migrate to Canada. A Canadian citizen or permanent residence can sponsor eligible relatives to migrate to Canada. They can sponsor their spouse or children below the age of 22. There are also options to bring parents and grandparents to the country. The persons seeking sponsorship has to be:

  • Spouse, common-law or conjugal partner
  • Dependent child
  • Parent
  • Grandparent
  • Sibling, nephew, niece, or grandchild(under the age of 18 years,  unmarried, and whose parents are deceased)of a Canadian citizen or permanent resident willing and eligible to sponsor them.
  1. LMIA Work Visa

Having a job offer from a Canadian employer makes it all the more easier for an international worker to migrate to Canada. Once a job offer is issued to the candidate, the Canadian employer applies for an LMIA through Service Canada. A Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA) is a document which is mandatory for an employer to obtain before employing a foreign worker. A positive LMIA shows that no Canadian worker is available to fill the vacancy and a foreign worker needs to be recruited to do the job. Upon securing an LMIA, the candidate will be able to apply for a work permit. 

To apply for a work permit, the candidate needs to submit: 

  • a job offer letter
  • a contract
  • a copy of the LMIA
  • LMIA number

After acquiring Canada’s work experience, they may apply for permanent residence in Canada.

  1. Provincial Nominee Programs

Of late, Provincial Nominee Programs(PNPs) have been gaining popularity among the immigration aspirants from across the world.  PNPs offer a fastrack option for those candidates with skills and qualifications that are in high demand in the provinces/territories to migrate to Canada. However, many PNP streams require the candidate to have a job offer from an employer in the province to qualify. The most popular PNP programs include those of Alberta, Ontario and British Columbia.

Each Provincial Nominee Program has at least one immigration stream aligned to the federal Express Entry. The Express Entry candidates who are nominated by the provinces receive 600 additional Comprehensive Ranking System(CRS)score points that guarantee them an Invitation to Apply for permanent residence in Canada in the subsequent Express Entry draw. There are more than 80 provincial immigration streams and if a candidate is able to choose the right pathway, it increases their chances of successfully migrating to Canada. A person can choose the right immigration pathway with the help of an expert immigration consultant.
