In a recent announcement, the Canadian immigration has affirmed its decision to uphold the six established categories (introduced in 2023) for category-based selection in Express Entry draws throughout the year 2024.

The categories retained for 2024 are:

  • A strong French language proficiency or
  • Work experience in one of the below fields:
    • healthcare
    • science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) professions
    • trades, such as carpenters, plumbers and contractors
    • transport
