Understanding the Express Entry Route
The Express Entry program has grown into a smart way for Canada to pick newcomers, doing more than just checking boxes on an application. Now, it uses what’s called “category-based selection.” That means it chooses people according to specific Canadian goals, such as:
– Strong communication in English or French
– Work history in in-demand careers
– Solid educational background
