Express Entry

A Clear Path Toward Permanent Residency in Canada

Considering making Canada your long-term home, but unsure where to start? If you are under 30, hold one or more degrees, or have a Master’s, and want a structured approach to securing your future, Express Entry could be the ideal option.

Immigrating to Canada is more than submitting forms—it’s about turning your education, skills, and experience into a new life in a thriving country. For many, navigating the Express Entry system can be confusing. That’s where Dhanda Immigration Consultancy in Courtenay comes in. Our team helps candidates move through the process with clarity, structure, and Confidence.

Express Entry Basics

Express Entry is Canada’s online system for managing permanent residence applications under economic programs. It utilizes a points-based system called the Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS), which ranks candidates based on their education, work experience, age, and language proficiency. A higher CRS score increases the chance of receiving an Invitation to Apply (ITA) for permanent residency.

With multiple programs, CRS points, and documentation requirements, the process can feel overwhelming. Dhanda Immigration Consultancy guides you at every stage, helping you position your profile effectively.
