What is Express Entry?

Express Entry is an online system used by the Canadian government to manage applications for permanent residency from skilled workers. It serves as a gateway to three major immigration programs: the Federal Skilled Worker Program (FSWP), Federal Skilled Trades Program (FSTP), and Canadian Experience Class (CEC). Through Express Entry, eligible candidates are ranked based on factors like age, education, work experience, and language skills, and those with the highest scores are invited to apply for permanent residency.

What is the Provincial Nominee Program?

The Provincial Nominee Program (PNP) allows Canadian provinces and territories to nominate individuals for permanent residency based on local labor market needs and economic goals. Each province and territory has its own set of criteria and streams to attract skilled workers, entrepreneurs, and investors. A provincial nomination can significantly enhance an applicant’s chances of obtaining permanent residency, either through Express Entry or through a direct PNP application to the federal government.

What are Home Support Workers and Home Child Caregivers?

The Home Support Workers and Home Child Caregivers Program is designed for individuals who wish to work in Canada as caregivers for children, elderly persons, or individuals with disabilities. This program allows eligible foreign workers to apply for permanent residency while working in these roles. It includes two specific streams: Home Child Caregiver and Home Support Worker, each tailored to different caregiving needs.

Home Child Caregiver Program:

This stream is intended for individuals who will provide care for children in a private home. It typically involves tasks such as supervising and caring for children, helping with their daily routines, and assisting with their development.

What is Humanitarian and Compassionate Grounds?

Humanitarian and Compassionate (H&C) Grounds are considerations used by Canadian immigration authorities to grant permanent residency to individuals who may not meet the usual requirements but have compelling personal circumstances. This pathway is often used by individuals who face significant hardships or have strong ties to Canada that would make their removal unduly harsh.

Eligibility Assessment:

We evaluate your personal situation to determine if you have valid grounds for applying under H&C considerations. This includes assessing factors such as hardship, family ties, and the impact of your potential removal from Canada.

Our team assists in preparing a thorough H&C application, which includes gathering evidence and documentation that supports your claim for humanitarian and compassionate considerations.
