Submit an Express Entry Profile: Online Form
Welcome to Your Pathway to Canadian Immigration Through Express Entry!
Once you’ve decided to apply for a Canadian federal immigration program and gathered the required documents, the next step is to submit your profile to the Express Entry pool. This pool is where eligible candidates’ profiles are evaluated against each other using the Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS).
The CRS ranks profiles based on various factors, and the highest-scoring candidates receive invitations to apply for Canadian residency. This systematic, merit-based process is an exciting journey, and your pathway to Canadian permanent residency starts here!
For detailed guidance on creating your Express Entry profile, our professional Regulated Canadian Immigration Consultants (RCIC) are here to help.

Steps to Create and Submit Your Express Entry Profile
Welcome to your Canadian immigration journey through the Express Entry system! We’ve simplified the steps to help you navigate the process and boost your chances of success:
Step 1: Prove Your Language Skills
Take a government-approved language test in English or French.
Step 2: Educational Assessment
If your education is from outside Canada, get it assessed for equivalency, especially if you’re applying for the Federal Skilled Worker Program.
Step 3: Ensure Your Work Experience Aligns with the National Occupational Classification (NOC)
Make sure your work experience fits within these NOC categories:
- TEER 0: Management occupations
- TEER 1: Occupations requiring a university degree
- TEER 2: Occupations requiring a college diploma, apprenticeship training of 2+ years, or supervisory roles
- TEER 3: Occupations requiring a college diploma, less than 2 years of apprenticeship, or 6+ months of on-the-job training
Step 4: Check Your Eligibility
Use the online tool on the Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) website to confirm your eligibility. Be ready with your language test results and NOC details.
Step 5: Build Your Express Entry Profile
Once you’re eligible, create your profile with the following details:
- Identity, age, and contact information
- Educational background and work experience
- Language proficiency
- Adaptability factors for life in Canada
- Family composition, including spouse or partner details
Keep these documents ready:
- Passport or travel document
- NOC occupation code
- Language test results
- Educational credential assessment (if required)
- Job offer from a Canadian employer (if applicable)
- Proof of provincial nomination (if applicable)
- Personal reference code from the eligibility tool
Step 6: Submit Your Profile
After completing your profile, submit it. You’ll receive an Express Entry profile number and a job seeker validation code, which can be used for future steps like registering with the Job Bank.
Note: Entering the pool doesn’t guarantee an invitation—your CRS score plays a critical role.
Step 7: Optional Job Bank Registration
Although no longer mandatory, you can register for the Job Bank if you need job search assistance.
Step 8: Regularly Update Your Profile
Update your profile if there are changes, such as new work experience, language test results, or educational qualifications.
Your Express Entry profile remains valid for one year. If you receive an invitation but decide to decline it, your profile will stay active as long as you continue meeting the eligibility criteria.
