Late in 2008, Citzenship and Immigration announced substantial changes to the Federal Skilled Worker program. The category is now restricted to a limited number of occupations. Canadian Immigration uses a selection grid, awarding points to determine the eligibility of several categores of applicants for immigration. It applies particularly to Skilled Workers. The question most people want answered quickly is "Will I qualify?" It seems like a simple question, but there are a lot of variables to take into consideration.
In order to qualify for the Federal Skilled Worker program, points are awared for:
-
Occupation
-
Education
-
Language Skills in English and French
-
Work experience in a qualified occupation
-
Age
-
Job Offer
-
Study in Canada
-
Previous residence in Canada for work or study
-
Spouse's education
-
Relatives in Canada
In addition, you must have enough funds for your resettlement in Canada.
