Canada Skilled Worker Visa Application Pack 9111eh

Skilled Worker Visa Application Pack
Skilled Worker Visa
In 2006, nearly 2 in 5 new Canadian immigrants were admitted under the

skilled worker class. There are two skilled worker programs: the federal
skilled worker and the Quebec skilled worker. The province of Quebec
selects immigrants according to its needs and issues a Certificate de
Selection du Quebec. The government of Canada will then check the
admissibility of the applicant.
Under the Federal Skilled Worker program applicants are selected and
approved by the Government of Canada. While other differences exist, the
structure of the programs is the same. Both programs will assess you based
on a point grid. You will be awarded points for education, work experience,
knowledge of Canadas official languages, age, and adaptability factors. You
will also have to prove that you have sufficient funds to support yourself for
six months once you arrive in Canada.
This application pack is a guide for applying for immigration to Canada

under the Skilled Worker class and will help you in filling out your skilled
worker application.

The Skilled Worker Class
Canada offers many types of categories under which a person can

immigrate. About 40% of immigrants admitted in 2006 came under the
Skilled Worker Class. This class of immigration is set up for persons who
have obtained a post-secondary education, work experience, are able to
communicate in one of Canadas languages, and can demonstrate their
ability to adjust to living Canada. These criteria are determined by a point
system.
There are two different Skilled Worker Programs. There is the Federal
Skilled Worker and the Quebec Skilled Worker. The main difference
between the two programs is that under the Quebec Skilled Worker,
applicants are approved by the Quebec government whereas persons who
apply for the Federal Skilled Worker will be evaluated by the federal
government. Another major difference is the distribution of points. The
Quebec program has its points allocated differently than the Federal
program. Lastly, applicants who apply to the Quebec program must be
highly proficient in French while applicants to the Federal program must be
functionally proficient in English or French.
The main focus of this application pack is the Federal Skilled

Worker program.
3
The Point System
All Skilled Worker applicants are assessed against a point system. In order
to qualify as a Skilled Worker, applicants must score a minimum of 67
points. Points are awarded for the following criteria: education, work
experience, knowledge of Canadas languages, age, job confirmation in
Canada and ability to adapt in Canada.
Education
Points for education range from 0-25. The higher your level of education,
the more points you will receive. Someone who has a Masters degree will
receive more points than someone with just a high school diploma.
Work Experience
A maximum of 21 points are earned for this criterion. Points are awarded
only if you have worked continuously for one year in a qualifying
occupation as listed in the National Occupation Classification chart. Your
occupation must be listed as a NOC Code Skill type O, or skill level A or B in
order to be valid. If you have less than one year of work experience you will
not receive any points. You will receive the maximum of 21 after 4 years of
work experience. You can find these codes at: http://www23.hrdc-
drhc.gc.ca/2001/e/generic/matrix.pdf
Knowledge of Canadas languages

Canada has two official languages: English and French. Your reading,
writing, listening, and speaking skills will be evaluated. You will be given a
maximum of 16 points for being fully fluent in one language and you can
receive a maximum of 8 more points for being fluent in the second
language. You will have to prove your fluency in these languages by writing
authorized exams. If you have lived extensively in a country where English
or French is the official language you may be exempt from writing the
language test but must present a written submission indicating the reasons
why you consider yourself highly proficient.
4
Age
A maximum of 10 points are awarded if you are between the ages of 21 and
49. Starting at age 50, the points will fall. No points are awarded for any
applicant who is under the age of 18.
Job confirmation in Canada

Some applicants will have had a job offer from a Canadian employer. Most
foreign nationals will require that Human Resources and Skills
Development Canada (HRSDC) approve the employment. Any applicant
who has a job confirmed from HRSDC will receive an additional 10 points.
These points can also be awarded for jobs that would qualify under NAFTA
or the Canada-Chile Free Trade Agreement.
Adaptability in Canada
A maximum of 10 points can be awarded for factors that will ease your
adaptability in Canada. These factors are: The education experience of your
spouse or common-law partner; whether you or your spouse/common-law
partner has studied in Canada for two years; or whether you or your
spouse/common-law partner has legally worked in Canada for one year.
There are many websites with pre-assessment questionnaires that can help
you find out if you were to qualify for this class. Note that even if you appear
to qualify on the pre-assessment questionnaires, this does not mean that
you are guaranteed qualification. This decision is up to the discretion of the
officer handling your case. If you wish to take a pre-assessment
questionnaire, please visit:
http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/assess/index.asp.
5
Adding Children to the Application
If you have dependent children you wish to include as part of your

application you can do so as long as they are your children, the children of
your spouse or common-law partner, or the dependent children of your
dependent children. In order to qualify as a dependant, a child must:
Be under the age of 22 and single

Be a full-time student at an accredited institution and has been
substantially dependant on his/her parents before turning 22 or before
marrying or entering a common-law relationship (if either happened before
the child turned 22)
Be over the age of 22 and must have been substantially dependant on
his/her parents before turning 22 and is unable to support him/herself due
to a medical condition.
6
Simplified Process and Regular Process

application process. The process works like this: You will complete the

visa office. Your file will be placed in a queue. The visa office will notify you
