Canada Immigration Points Requirements

Although there are numerous opportunities in Canada, getting there is not easy. If you’re thinking about moving to Canada, read this blog post for more information on the requirements for skilled immigration.

To be eligible for skilled immigration to Canada, you must first meet the prerequisites. Being eligible to enter Canada and having a valid travel document, such as a passport, are two of them. You must also be eligible for self-employment in Canada or have a pre-arranged job offer there.

The point assessment grid used by Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) must also be passed with a sufficient number of points. The grid considers factors such as your age, level of education, work history, and language proficiency. To be eligible for skilled immigration to Canada, you must receive at least 67 points out of a possible 100.

If you meet all of the prerequisites and earn enough points on the IRCC point evaluation grid, you can apply for skilled immigration to Canada.

Which Skilled Immigration Points Do I Need?

To be eligible for skilled immigration to Canada, you must receive at least 67 points on the selection grid. The selection grid considers human capital factors such as age, education, employment history, language proficiency, and adaptability.

If you are applying as a skilled worker, you must have at least one year of equivalent paid work experience in a profession listed on Canada’s National Occupational Classification (NOC) list in the last ten years, or at least one year of continuous full-time employment. Your previous employment must have been in the same NOC classification as the primary occupation you intend to pursue after moving to Canada.

The number of points you receive is determined by your age, with those between the ages of 18 and 35 receiving the most. Furthermore, your level of education will be considered when determining your score, with PhD and master’s degree holders receiving the highest scores. Furthermore, the amount of work experience is taken into account, with more points awarded for more extensive work experience.

Points are also awarded for language proficiency in either English or French. To receive the maximum number of points, you must have “Canadian Language Benchmark” level 7 proficiency in both official languages. Adaptability is another factor considered, and points can be awarded for things like having relatives in Canada, having previously worked there, or passing a credential assessment from a recognized organization.
