 Federal Skilled Workers Program
Skilled Worker

This program is for those individuals that are selected under the Federal Skilled Workers Program (FSWP) category. Successful candidates under this category primarily demonstrate the ability integrate well into Canadian society and make a meaningful contribution to our economy. If you have the skills and knowledge to perform well at your occupation and you can demonstrate that you will be able to settle down in Canada with ease, then this is the category of immigration that you should apply under. If you are not sure if this is the right path for you to come to Canada, you can simply speak to one of our Toronto immigration consultants and we can help guide you so that you are aware of exactly what is required for you to be eligible to come to Canada as a Federal Skilled Worker.

Recently, there have been improvements to the Federal Skilled Worker Program with regards to the point system that is used to evaluate potential applicants. Based on extensive research conducted by the government and a thorough program evaluation, the FSWP has been re structured to meet the ever changing climate of Canada’s economy and long term prosperity. Not only have these changes improved Canada’s ability to differentiate between potential immigrants that are better suited to work here, but the new changes also ensure that these immigrants will also be better positioned for success. As a result, this new program will help adapt to Canada’s changing labour market needs and help fill the gaps left by the natural labour market in Canada, without placing a burden on our society. There are a number of different criteria that are measured to evaluate your eligibility. Below is a list of the basic requirements to qualify under the FSWP.

BASIC REQUIREMENTS

  • One year of continuous work experience
  • You must meet the minimum language requirement
  • You must meet the minimum education requirement
  • You must obtain the minimum score based on the six selection factors in the skilled worker points grid
  • You must provide proof of funds available to support yourself and your family once you arrive in Canada
  • You must not be inadmissible for any reason (criminal, health, public safety, etc.)

These are the basic requirements against which you will be assessed to determine if you will be an eligible candidate for the Federal Skilled Worker Program in Canada. The new changes that have been implemented to the FSWP will ensure that only those individuals that will be able to integrate rapidly and successfully in to Canada’s economy are selected. This will also benefit successful applicants as they will have an easier time adjusting to Canadian society and being productive workers in the labour force.

Our Toronto immigration consultants can help you come to Canada under the Federal Skilled Worker Program sooner and can pre qualify you before even applying to ensure that you application is successful and that you are ready to start your new life in Canada with your family. Canada’s immigration in Toronto, Ontario is especially diverse and geared towards the hard working immigrants that arrive each year so that you can live a prosperous life in Canada with your family.
