This Week’s Success Story: Federal Skilled Worker – Express Entry

We receive many requests for help from people who are in the USA on a student or work visa and for one reason or another, they want to apply for permanent residence in Canada. Recently we have been hired by a person from India, who did his Master’s program in the USA and then obtain work visas. He is a highly educated individual, with very good work experience. We asked him for his personal history timeline and supporting documents. The job reference letters are really important in such applications, as there are a few items that must be included in the letter. After a couple of revisions, we finalized the letters to include all the required elements.

We created the profile in the Express Entry pool and because he had a high score, we received an Invitation to Apply (ITA) on the next draw.  We then proceeded in preparing the full application, asked for all the supporting documents and submitted the application within the 60 days allotted for this process. The processing of this application was really fast, as everything was well prepared and no supporting document was missing, all the information was correctly done and the visa officer did not have any questions or clarifications to ask.

Now this individual is happily a permanent resident of Canada, looking for a job in his own field and specialty, which we have no doubt he will find very soon.
