JANUARY, 2016
Twelve months after the
initial launch of Canada’s Express Entry immigration
selection system, candidates who were quick to create an Express Entry profile
last year are being advised on how they may realize their Canadian immigration
goals during 2016.
Many candidates in the
Express Entry pool are becoming more proactive in their pursuit of Canadian
permanent resident status. For some, this entails a renewed effort to increase
their Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) score, while others are focusing
more on immigration options outside the Express Entry system; indeed, both
strategies may be pursued simultaneously.
A candidate for immigration to Canada under
Express Entry can only stay in the Express Entry pool for one year from the date
he or she was accepted into it. The profile will be deleted after one year,
though a new one may be created. In any event, candidates in the Express Entry
pool, as well as those considering entering the pool in 2016, may have cause
for optimism due to some recent comments from CIC.
CRS point requirement
expected to decrease in 2016
“The number of invitations issued per round is
expected to increase as the pre-Express Entry inventory of applications is
finalised. In turn, it is expected that the minimum score of those that are
invited to apply will drop,” she stated, adding that “we expect that in the new
year when our rounds start growing — to meet our new levels plan — that the
score will reduce.”
These on-the-record
comments have galvanized some candidates who, in spite of not having yet
received an Invitation to Apply (ITA) for Canadian
permanent residence, remain confident that they may receive an ITA. As such, it
is expected that many candidates will create new profiles over the opening
months of 2016. Indeed, the first Express Entry draw of 2016 has already taken place, with 1,463 candidates receiving ITAs on
January 6.
Creating a new Express Entry
profile
Citizenship and
Immigration Canada (CIC) advises candidates who anticipate having to create a
new profile to ‘save screen shots of (or print out) your profile to
make it easier to re-enter your data. Do not create a new profile until your
existing one expires. You can create a new profile at any time once yours
expires.’

Candidates in this situation should note that
they will have 60 days to fill out and validate the information in their
profile. If they still meet minimum entry criteria, a new Express Entry profile
number and Job Seeker Validation Code will be provided.
These numbers should be used to update
the Job Match account in the Job Bank, if applicable. This step
is necessary for candidates without a qualifying job offer or a nomination from
a province or territory.
Once a profile is created, candidates can try to
improve their core human capital factors by improving their language test
results, by completing an additional year of work experience, and/or by
completing a higher level of education. Certain candidates may also benefit
from their spouse or common-law partner’s core human capital factors being
considered, if applicable. In addition, candidates can initiate or improve a
successful strategy to connect with Canadian recruiters and employers.
Candidates who decide not to create a new
Express Entry profile are advised to remove any references that they are a
candidate for Express Entry from any private job board websites, if they used
any.

Canadian immigration
options outside the Express Entry system
Candidates in the
Express Entry pool, as well as other individuals interested in immigrating to
Canada, should note that Express Entry is an application management system for
only a handful of immigration programs. At the same time, there are other
programs — the Provincial Nominee Programs — that have immigration streams that operate
outside the Express Entry system. Many individuals are expected to make a successful
application to one of these programs in 2016.
For example, the
Saskatchewan Immigrant Nominee Program (SINP) International Skilled
Workers - Occupations In-Demand sub-category, which exists
outside Express Entry, was one of many sub-categories that reopened for
applications this week. Within a few hours, however, the application cap had
been reached. Many, if not all, of those who managed to submit an application
had done prior research and preparation, allowing them to be ready to make an
application when the program reopened.
In addition, there have
been many positive developments with respect to the Quebec Skilled Worker
Program (QSWP) over recent days, weeks and months.
The QSWP and SINP are only two of many
non-Express Entry Canadian immigration options.

From transition to new
opportunities
“We don’t know the extent to which the scores
may decrease or how the system may change in the future, or when. However, most
of the recent signals are positive, and candidates who have not yet received an
Invitation to Apply should take heart,” says Attorney David Cohen.
“Candidates in the pool are visible, so to
speak, to the Canadian provinces that are looking to welcome newcomers through
the Provincial Nominee Programs. People are also realizing that a candidate in
the pool has far more leverage when discussing a possible job opportunity with
a Canadian employer than a candidate who is not in the pool.
“Moreover, it might well be the case that some
candidates have been so focused on Express Entry that they haven’t fully
grasped that there are many paths to Canada. Some lateral thinking may be
required in order to fulfil one’s Canadian immigration dreams. To this end,
candidates should note that Canada has a highly decentralized immigration
system in which the provinces are also able to select newcomers, and many of
these programs operate outside the Express Entry system.”
