• the third type is the federal skilled trades program.

let’s take you through the explanation of the three different streams of programs under the express entry program the type

1 the federal skilled worker’s program this is by far the most popular of all the three streams under the express entry program this is because it allows international applicants who do not have prior temporary resident status in Canada to apply it is open to all applicants who want to immigrate to Canada permanently as field workers the fswp eligibility criteria the requirements under the fswp include the following have a competitive CRS core by using the comprehensive ranking system tool at least a degree or a diploma at least one year of paid work experience in a full time or it’s equivalence in the last 10 years in a skilled occupation please note that the only occupations that fall under Canada’s national occupation classification code

a b 0 are eligible under this program here are the jobs for each knuckle 0 are managerial jobs no code a are professionals and not could be done note that the current noc which is the national occupation classification is based on the 2016 classification and the government plans to release the 2021 classification which might differ from the current noc classification  the next eligibility criteria is you meeting the clp which is the Canadian language benchmark for English or french language test order your eca report has an active express entry profile and select fswp, please note that a full-time job from a Canadian employer is not required but could boost your CRS score.

the cec the same criterion would apply to candidate b a mecca who got a work visa to migrate to Canada as an entrepreneur just as the name of this program sounds it is all about your work experience in Canada if your work experience was gained without proper authorization to work in Canada you wouldn’t be eligible any work done while enrolled as a full-time student does not count under the cec program only full-time jobs performed while on postgraduate permits pgwp or on a valid open or closed work payments as a foreign worker in Canada candidates must have at least one year of skilled professional or technical work experience under the not code a b or zero in Canada with a valid work payment the job must have been done within the last three years at a time of submitting your application you must have gained the work experience by legally working in Canada while under temporary residence leaders with authorization to work full-time ineligible candidates are refugee claimants are not eligible under this program language test requirement for jobs in the note codes 0 and e the language score clb7 is what is required for not code b a language score of clb5 is required interesting features of the Canadian experience class cec include no formal schooling or education is required no proof of funds is required faster processing time of four months in most cases since the province of Quebec does not participate in this program applicants must be willing to live outside of cubic if they apply for cec .
