Process for moving to Canada from Oman is simple and complicated at the same time. Simple given online procedure, whereas complicated in terms of the frequently changing immigration rules and guidelines, which are not easy to interpret and follow. Let's take a look at the key pathways for moving to Canada.

Express Entry pathway

Express Entry is a point-based system that allows skilled workers to apply and obtain a Canada PR visa. When an applicant registers his/her profile in express Entry, he/she gets some immigration points based on age, work experience, language proficiency, etc. The total of these points forms a score called CRS (Comprehensive Ranking System) score.

The Immigration Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) organize a draw every fortnight to choose the top CRS score applicants. The selected applicants receive an invitation to apply for Canadian permanent residency from IRCC.

PNP pathway

Provincial Nominee Program (PNP) is another key pathway to get Canada PR. It is an indirect method to obtain permanent residency in Canada. Most of Canada's provinces have a Provincial Nominee Program through which they invites and selects the best-suited applicants for their province. An applicant selected in the Provincial Nominee Program (PNP) gets the Provincial Nominee Certificate, which helps an applicant get PR in Canada. If you have applied in the express entry stream of a PNP, you will get additional 600 CRS points in the Express Entry, which makes you eligible to get ITA (Invitation to Apply) from IRCC to apply Canada PR.

On the other hand, if you have applied in non-express entry stream, you get Provincial nomination, which makes you eligible to apply for Canada PR to IRCC directly.
