Destination
Points-based PR, respected universities and family-friendly immigration.
Canada is one of the most popular destinations for Indian students, skilled workers and families, and one of the most structured. Economic immigration is managed largely through Express Entry, a points-based system, while provinces and territories nominate candidates who meet local needs.
Many people start in Canada as students or temporary workers and later move to permanent residence. Immigration levels and rules are updated regularly, so it pays to plan around current requirements.
Highlights
The main routes Indian applicants use. Eligibility rules change regularly, so we confirm current criteria during your assessment.
Manages applications for the Federal Skilled Worker, Canadian Experience Class and Federal Skilled Trades programmes. Candidates are ranked by Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) score, and the highest-ranked receive invitations to apply.
Provinces and territories nominate people who match their labour market needs. A nomination through an Express Entry–aligned stream substantially boosts your CRS score.
For admission to a designated learning institution (DLI). Most applicants also need a provincial or territorial attestation letter, and new permits are subject to national caps.
Employer-specific permits, often supported by a Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA), and open work permits for eligible graduates and spouses.
Temporary resident visas for tourism, family visits and business trips, plus the Super Visa for parents and grandparents of citizens and permanent residents.
Canadian citizens and permanent residents can sponsor a spouse, common-law partner or dependent children for permanent residence.
What most applicants need. Exact requirements depend on the visa, and we'll give you a personalised checklist.
There's no fixed pass mark. Cut-off scores change with every Express Entry draw and differ between general, programme-specific and category-based draws. Rather than chase a number, we focus on raising your score through language results, French skills, additional credentials or a provincial nomination.
You need an approved language test, but IELTS isn't the only option. CELPIP and PTE Core are accepted for English, and TEF Canada or TCF Canada for French.
No. Most candidates are invited without a job offer. Some programmes and provincial streams do require one, and a valid offer can help you meet certain eligibility criteria.
