The parties concerned would be using an electronic system called the Express Entry System, made available by the Department of Citizenship and Immigration for the:
- Foreign national to serve the purpose specified in subsection 10.1 (3) of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act (IRPA) and,
- The Minister to serve the purpose specified in subsection 10.2 (3) of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act (IRPA)
This electronic system will be useful for the authorities to:
- Determine:
- Whether they should issue an invitation to the foreign national based on the information provided in the expression of interest that the individuals submitted to the Minister
- The rank of the foreign national relative to that of other eligible foreign nationals and,
- Whether the foreign national occupies the rank required for the authorities to issue an invitation AND,
- Automatically transfer the information provided by the foreign national in their expression of interest to the electronic Application for Permanent Residence (e-APR) made by the foreign national under section 12.01 of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Regulations (IRPR)
- This is especially so if the authorities issue an invitation to the foreign national.
