Federal Skilled Selection
Canada's online management system for the Canadian Experience Class, Federal Skilled Worker Program and Federal Skilled Trades Program. Eligible candidates enter a pool and are ranked under the Comprehensive Ranking System.
Residence & Immigration
Canada combines federal selection, provincial nomination, Atlantic employer pathways and community-led programs, each with different eligibility logic and local priorities.
Discuss your profile
At a glance
A competitive profile is more than a points score. Language, education, occupation, work history, employer connection, province, community and family timing can all change the most realistic route. MAYA GROUP brings those variables into one comparison before a pathway is pursued.
Program rules, selection priorities and processing conditions change. Every strategy therefore begins with a current-rule check and an individual review; public information is a starting point, not personal immigration advice.
Principal pathways
These are high-level summaries. Eligibility and evidence should be confirmed against the rules in force when an application strategy is prepared.

Province- and territory-led streams for candidates whose skills, experience or business background support local needs and who intend to settle in the nominating jurisdiction.
A permanent-residence pathway for skilled workers and eligible Atlantic Canadian graduates with a qualifying offer from a designated employer in an Atlantic province.
Community-led routes for eligible skilled workers with a designated-employer offer and community recommendation, including participating rural and Francophone-minority communities.
Decision standard
Applicants should understand not only whether they can create a profile, but how competitive that profile is, whether a province or community has a relevant stream and whether the settlement plan makes practical sense.
Important considerations
Entering the Express Entry pool does not guarantee an invitation to apply.
Provincial streams, allocations and occupation priorities can open, pause or change independently.
A qualifying job offer may still matter to program eligibility even though job-offer CRS points were removed in March 2025.
The former Rural and Northern Immigration Pilot is closed; current community options must be checked by name and location.
How Maya coordinates the journey
Review age, education, language, work, occupation, Canadian links and family objectives.
Compare federal eligibility, ranking dynamics and relevant provincial or community options.
Sequence language tests, education assessments, employer evidence and settlement documentation.
Support milestone and document coordination with authorised Canadian professionals where required.
Connect education, banking, property and relocation workstreams after the route is defined.
Frequently asked questions
These answers are general and do not replace an assessment by appropriately authorised professionals in the relevant jurisdiction.
No. Express Entry is an application-management system for three federal economic programs. Candidates must first be eligible, then receive an invitation before submitting a permanent-residence application.
Not for every route. Some pathways do not require one, while Atlantic and community programs depend on qualifying employment. The value of a job offer depends on the exact program.
Provincial processes vary. Some streams invite candidates from Express Entry, while others use separate expressions of interest or application processes and may have employer or local-connection requirements.
Whenever language scores, work history, family circumstances or program settings change. Canadian selection priorities are dynamic, so a static one-time score is rarely enough.
