In 2025, Canada made a bold decision—cutting PNP allocations in half and redirecting focus toward Express Entry. While some saw this as a setback, it’s a strategic win for skilled immigrants already in Canada.
Express Entry, especially the Canadian Experience Class (CEC) stream, is now the fastest and most direct route to permanent residency.
Why This Is Great for Skilled Workers:
🚀 1. Open Mobility
Express Entry doesn’t bind you to one province, giving you the freedom to choose where you want to live and work.
💼 2. Straightforward Eligibility
CEC asks for:
- 1 year of skilled work in Canada (within the last 3 years)
- CLB 5–7 language proficiency
- No job offer or provincial nomination required
⏱️ 3. Speedier Approvals
Compared to the lengthy 18–20 month PNP process, Express Entry applications are finalized in under 6 months.
Mathias’s Story
Mathias, a skilled tradesman in Nova Scotia, didn’t meet PNP requirements there. But with CLB 8 and a CRS score of 532, he qualified for an education-based category draw under Express Entry. Now, he’s waiting for his ITA and planning a move to Alberta.
