The Federal Skilled Worker Program (FSWP) facilitates the immigration of foreign nationals to Canada. FSWP has effectively been selecting qualified individuals worldwide to work and settle in Canada. This program employs a point-based system that evaluates factors such as age, language proficiency, work experience, education, and occupation, aligning with the Express Entry selection process.
Canada’s Express Entry system oversees three distinct economic immigration programs, including FSWP. Notably, Canada was the pioneer in introducing a points-based selection system for deserving candidates. Engaging a skilled immigration consultant can enhance your point accumulation through accurate representation of your eligibility criteria.
FSWP plays a vital role in facilitating the immigration of more than 110,000 foreign nationals to Canada each year. Utilizing the Comprehensive Ranking System of Express Entry draws, the program regularly selects eligible candidates who can then apply for permanent residency via FSWP and other economic immigration routes.
FSWP provides a viable option for those who are not skilled trade professionals and lack prior experience in Canada. Aspiring FSWP candidates are not required to have Canadian work experience. However, meeting the minimum points threshold on the following criteria is essential
These factors contribute to assigning points on the FSWP grid. An eligible candidate needs to achieve a minimum of 67 points out of 100, which qualifies them to enter the Express Entry selection system by creating a profile.
| Factors | Points |
| Education | Maximum 25 points |
| Language Skills supported by approved language test | Maximum 28 points |
| Work Experience | Maximum 15 points |
| Age | Maximum 12 points |
| Arranged Employment | Maximum 10 points |
| Adaptability | Maximum 10 points |
