profile where they furnish information with respect to their skills, education,

making a profile, he’s obligated to complete the same within 60 days. The 
information supplied there will be assessed by the authorities to check if a

the requirements, you’re accepted into a pool of candidates, where 
candidates are ranked using a points-based system called the CRS or the 
Comprehensive Ranking System. The highest ranking candidates in the pool 
are invited to submit an online application for permanent residence. This is 
to be done within 90 days from the invite. Most applications are processed 
within 6 months or less.
