    basis of education qualifications, language proficiency, work experience and age.

    The Express Entry Program uses a points-based system known asthe Comprehensive

    A ranking system to evaluate the residency prospects for applicants. This score

    determines the Invitation to Apply (ITA). The better the score, the more chances one has

    for the visa application.

    These points can be understood in a detailed manner.

    1. Educational Qualification - 25 points

    Education, being the building block of life, is essential in each phase of life.

    Completion of post-secondary education plays a pivotal role in attaining Canada

    PR visa. One must have completed their basic secondary education before

    applying as it gets assessed by an Educational Credentials Assessment (ECA).

    ECA reports whether an individual’s educational credentials are equivalent to

    Canadian standards. Ph.D. level scores the maximum points, which is 25 points

    whereas it decreases with each level, such as

    application.
