Targeting specific occupational groups such as medical, health, and transportation
The Federal Immigration Department has unveiled a new selection method in Express Entry for express immigration.
This is good news for Koreans looking forward to permanent residency.
Even if you have only 6 months of short experience, you can take on the challenge, and experience accumulated overseas such as Korea is also recognized.
This selection method, named ‘Category-based selection’ in Express Entry, can be applied for if you have at least 6 months of continuous experience in a specific job group (in the last 3 years), language ability and an academic background.
As for the category selection method, those with high scores are invited to immigrate first, so it is essential to establish a comprehensive strategy that considers English, career, age, and academic background.
Jaein Lee, an immigration consultant, said, “The Federal Immigration Department is implementing a program like this to address the labor shortage across Canada.” “If you have at least 6 months of continuous experience in a specific occupation, you can apply. In Canada and abroad, it is also an advantage that all the accumulated experience is recognized. In order to obtain a high score, it is important to establish a strategy that suits each individual situation, so specific consultation with an expert is recommended.”
Specific job groups include Healthcare Occupation, Science, Technology, Engineering and Math, Field Technology Trade, Transport, Agriculture and Agriculture and Agri-food.
