EU invites Canada as first associate

Canada has extended an invitation to 250 senior managers with Canadian work experience to apply for permanent residence through the Express Entry system. The Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) conducted its latest targeted Express Entry draw on Wednesday, inviting eligible candidates with a minimum Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) score of 389.

The selection focused specifically on candidates with Canadian work experience in senior management occupations. Candidates currently in Canada with an Express Entry application may be eligible for a Bridging Open Work Permit (BOWP), allowing them to continue working while awaiting a decision on their permanent residence application.

This pathway provides another opportunity for eligible senior managers with Canadian work experience to pursue permanent residence through Canada’s Express Entry system.
