Re: New Express Entry ranking system will be applied in Nov 19th (detail inside!)
So in short these are the 2 major changes:
1. Canadian Students get more points based on level or education:
0 points, if the foreign national has a secondary school educational credential;
15 points, if the foreign national has an eligible credential from a one-year or two-year post-secondary program
30 points, if the foreign national has
(i) an eligible credential from a post-secondary program of three years or more,
(ii) an eligible credential from a university-level program at the master’s level or at the level of an entry-to-practice professional degree for an occupation listed in the National Occupational Classification matrix at Skill Level A for which licensing by a provincial regulatory body is required, or
(iii) an eligible credential from a university-level program at the doctoral level.
2. 600 points for LMIA are gone, now only the following:
1. 200 points, if the offer is for employment in an occupation contained in Major Group 00 of the National Occupation Classification;
2. 50 points, if the offer is any other qualifying offer of arranged employment.
