@explorewithfestus_: Move to Canada as a permanent resident in 2027 🇨🇦 Canada is making a major Express Entry change from 3 November 2026. Some qualifying HIGH-WAGE Canadian job offers will once again give CRS points: ✅ 50 points ✅ 70 points ✅ Up to 100 points And unlike the old system, an LMIA will NOT be required just to make that qualifying job offer eligible for these points. But understand this clearly: Not every job offer gets points. The occupation must meet Canada’s high-wage classification, and IRCC will still verify that the offer is genuine. No job offer? You can STILL potentially qualify for Express Entry. For someone outside Canada, the Federal Skilled Worker route generally starts with: 1️⃣ At least 1 year / 1,560 hours of continuous paid skilled work in TEER 0, 1, 2 or 3. 2️⃣ An approved English or French test. FSW normally requires at least CLB 7. 3️⃣ An Educational Credential Assessment if your education is foreign. 4️⃣ At least 67/100 on the FSW eligibility grid. 5️⃣ Create an Express Entry profile and receive a CRS score. Canada’s CURRENT category-based priorities also include: 👩‍⚕️ Healthcare + social services ⚙️ STEM 🔧 Trades 👩‍🏫 Education ✈️ Transport 🇫🇷 French For the occupation-based categories above, eligible work experience can be gained in Canada OR abroad. Most currently require at least 12 months in the eligible occupation within the previous 3 years. Important: Canada has NOT yet announced the final 2027 category list, so do not assume today’s categories are guaranteed for all of 2027. My advice? Start NOW with your language test, ECA, correct NOC and work-reference letters. An Express Entry profile can remain active for up to 12 months.
