The Express Entry system transforms skilled worker immigration to Canada, offering an efficient pathway to permanent residency. Using a points-based system, it evaluates factors like age, education, work experience, and language proficiency, swiftly selecting candidates vital to the Canadian labor market.

Canadian Provincial Nominee Programs (PNPs) enable provinces and territories to select skilled individuals who meet local labor market needs, complementing the federal immigration system. PNPs offer tailored pathways to permanent residency, promoting economic development and addressing regional disparities.

Common questions about Canada

Canada’s immigration system can be complex, and it’s natural to have questions before starting your journey. Below, we’ve answered the most frequently asked questions from candidates who have approached Visthara about working and settling in Canada.
  • Can I apply for PR while on a work permit?

    Yes. Many temporary work permit holders transition to PR through Express Entry's Canadian Experience Class (CEC) after gaining at least one year of skilled work experience in Canada. Visthara can guide you through this transition at the appropriate time.

  • Do I need a job offer to apply for Express Entry?

    Not always. Programs like the Federal Skilled Worker (FSW) stream don't require a job offer, though having one from a Canadian employer can significantly boost your CRS score — typically by 50 to 200 points. Visthara's recruitment network increases your chances of securing a valid job offer.

  • What IELTS score is required for Express Entry?

    For the Federal Skilled Worker program, a minimum CLB 7 (generally IELTS 6.0 in each band) is required. However, achieving CLB 9 (IELTS 7.0 or above) significantly increases your CRS score. We strongly recommend aiming for the highest possible band score before submitting an Express Entry profile.

  • Can my family accompany me to Canada?
    Yes. Spouses or common-law partners of most work permit holders are generally eligible for an open spousal work permit. Dependent children under 22 can attend Canadian public schools at no cost. Visthara can assist with family member applications alongside your own.
  • How long does the entire process take from start to finish?
    Express Entry applicants can receive an Invitation to Apply (ITA) within a few months, with total processing taking around 6–8 months. PNP routes typically take 12–18 months in total. Visthara will give you a realistic personalised timeline during your initial consultation.
  • How does Visthara help with job placement?
    Visthara maintains active relationships with verified Canadian employers across healthcare, construction, IT, hospitality, and other sectors. We match your skills and experience with open positions, prepare your CV to Canadian standards, and help you secure a formal job offer letter.
  • Will my foreign qualifications be recognised in Canada?
    Foreign educational credentials are typically assessed through an Educational Credential Assessment (ECA) conducted by bodies such as WES. For regulated professions like nursing, engineering, and medicine, additional licensing steps are required through provincial regulatory bodies. Visthara guides you through credential recognition requirements.
