Federal Skilled Worker Program
In January 2015, Immigration Canada (IRCC) created a virtual system called Express Entry, designed to manage other immigration programs like Federal Skilled Worker (FSWP), Canadian Experience Class, Federal Skilled Trades and several Provincial Nominee Programs.
The Federal Skilled Worker Program focuses on foreign skilled workers that have foreign work experience and wish to obtain Canadian Permanent Residency.
