Immigration Programs & Supports

Express Entry Program is an electronic management application system for immigration to Canada. The intent of Express Entry is to fast track the processing of skilled immigrants deemed most likely to succeed in Canada. It is a way for employers to hire skilled foreign workers to meet their labour needs when they are unable to find Canadians or permanent residents to fill job vacancies. It facilitates the selection and processing of applicants through the following economic immigration programs:

• the Federal Skilled Worker Class 
• the Federal Skilled Trades Class 
• the Canadian Experience Class

The Temporary Foreign Worker Program (TFWP) allows Canadian employers to hire foreign nationals to fill temporary labour and skill shortages when qualified Canadian citizens or permanent residents are not available.
