Express entry Canada 2022
Canada has one of the most positive immigration policies in the world and welcomes more than 200,000 new immigrants each year. According to an international survey conducted recently, 53 per cent of adults in the world’s 24 leading countries said they would immigrate to Canada. While Canada offers a great choice of both Federal and Provincial immigration programs, immigration to Canada has become increasingly popular due to main driver of the Canadian immigration system – Express Entry. Express Entry applicants receive priority processing and increased accessibility for candidates from a broader range of occupations. Without a cap on the number of applications being accepted for processing, applicants can apply to Express Entry at any time without being concerned that the program will close or fill up before their application is completed.
All immigration programs managed under the Express Entry system have different eligibility criteria. The programs are: Federal Skilled Worker, Federal Skilled Trades Program and Canadian Experience Class. Thus ability to qualify under one of these categories is the first requirement under Express Entry.
The Express Entry involves two steps: 1. Complete an online Express Entry profile, be placed in pool of candidates and 2. Receive invitation to apply for permanent residence from IRCC. Candidates in the pool are ranked using a point-based system (CRS). Getting into Express Entry doesn’t guarantee invitation to apply, since applicants have to meet all eligible and admissibility requirements. Upon entering the pool, candidates are assigned a CRS score based on factors including education, work experience, language ability, and other criteria. Highest-ranking candidates are regularly selected from draw and invited to apply for permanent residence. Results and previous rounds of invitations can be found here.

What Is The Difference Between Full Representation And Consultation Packages?
Full representation packages include end to end assistance with your application(s). While consultation packages are strictly limited to consultation time allocated
Everyone tries to find the best immigration consultant for their needs. People usually consider factors like experience, reliability, accreditation and easiness in communication. But total cost for achieving immigration goals can be higher than expected with constantly increasing prices in Canada.
Most of immigration law offices in Toronto will offer only full representation services and will present immigration lawyer’s fees only after initial consultation. While here at RightWay Canada, we offer at least four different packages for each program we are specialized in. As to immigration consultant’s professional fees, you can find all packages with detailed breakdown on our website prior to booking your immigration consultation.
Are You Currently Taking New Cases?
Yes, we are taking new cases as usual. RightWay Canada team is fully staffed and there are no delays in processing on our end.
However, IRCC processing times are impacted nationally due to COVID-19, as a result of which processing of your application may be longer than usual. Thus, we strongly recommend to get started at earliest to avoid any further delays.
Do You Currently Offer In-office Appointments?
Safety of our staff and clients is top priority during pandemic. Unfortunately, in-office appointments with immigration consultants are temporarily unavailable due to COVID-19.
However, we offer both phone and online immigration consultation with a screen-sharing feature, which gives you an opportunity to share with us all information and the documents required for your application.
As an exception, existing clients are also able to book document drop-offs, if required.
Do You Accept Cases From Other Countries/provinces?
Yes, our immigration company assists clients from all countries regardless of the type of application.
How Many Years Of Experience Do You Have?
RightWay Canada Immigration Services was founded in 2016.
When it comes to experience in Canadian immigration, number of years in industry is not the only factor to consider. It’s also important to consider the scope of expertise as well as number of clients served per year.
For example, a law firm with 35 years of experience may assist clients in all aspects of law, but at the same time process less than 5 immigration related cases per year.
Our immigration consulting firm is solely focused on Citizenship, Permanent Residence (PR) and Temporary Residence Visa (TRV) applications. We have assisted over 400 clients with their immigration needs only in 2020.
If I Retain Your Services, Will I Have An Access To My File Through Ircc Account After Submission?
In case of full representation, you will have no access to your application from IRCC Portal.
All applications are submitted through IRCC Authorized Representative Portal rather than regular client portal.
However, we update our clients on all IRCC notifications within 1 business day. Exceptions may apply in rare cases when prior documentation review is required by our team. Usually, that takes no longer than 3 business days.
What Are The Next Steps After I Finalize Retainer Agreement?
The digital document includes three main steps:
- Signing the retainer agreement
- Booking initial appointment
- Making the payment
Once all steps are completed, you will receive an email from our immigration office. Please note, that there are no other requirements prior to initial appointment. During your initial appointment, you will be introduced to your case processing manager, who will activate your online client portal and will go over next steps.
Do You Guarantee Approval? What If My Application Gets Refused?
No one can guarantee approval of your application, as final decision fully depends on immigration officer.
Kindly avoid all kind of ghost consultants as well as unethical representatives who “guarantee results” or provide “success rates” to grab your attention.
Here at RightWay Canada, we put all our efforts in maximizing your chances of success. Reputation of our immigration company is extremely important to us, as you can see from our client reviews.
If your application gets refused, we will resubmit it one time free of charge. This does not include government application fees, as well as cases where false/misleading/incomplete information or document was provided by client.
What Happens If I Do Not Receive ITA?
Some IRCC programs require Invitation to Apply (ITA) prior to submission. Receiving ITA may be fully based on luck (e.g. PGP applications), data entry speed (OINP applications) or on applicant’s points (Express Entry applications). Thus, outcome is not based on your immigration adviser’s professional skills. At the same time, adding your profile into pool of candidates to participate in draws is a must.
If you do not receive ITA for PGP or OINP, we will refund all professional fees paid except $250 non-refundable deposit.
We want to see you succeed, thus we will resubmit your profile into pool free of charge within next two years.
As to Express Entry applications, immigration consultant’s fees are already split between two retainer agreements:
- Stage 1: Express Entry Profile Submission
- Stage 2: PR Application upon receiving ITA (CEC or FSW)
Do You Offer Payment Instalments? What Is Your Refund Policy?
RightWay Canada Immigration Services operates through trust account in accordance with IRCC Trust Account Regulation.
Clients are required to make full payment into Client Trust Account as per Section 5.1 of our retainer agreements. However, client funds will be withdrawn from Trust Account as per payment schedule identified in Section 6.2 of our retainer agreements.
You may also refer to Section 7 (Refund Policy) and Section 12 (Termination) of our retainer agreements for more details.
How Long Does The Application Process Take?
Processing Time Before Submission: Usually it takes us up to 5 business days to review and submit application to IRCC once personalized document checklist is completed by clients. The overall process may take from 1 week to 6 months based on type of program as well as how fast client can gather all required documents.
Processing Time After Submission: IRCC Application processing times vary depending on:
- Type of application
- Country of residence
- Canadian Visa Office
- Interview requirements
- Number of applications under consideration
Please visit processing times tool for more details. Kindly note that IRCC processing times may be longer than usual due to COVID-19.
Can You Assist Me If I Have Previous Refusals?
Yes. Statistically, more than 30% of our clients were refused at least once prior to retaining our services.
However, an initial consultation is required to assess your individual situation and reasons of refusal to make sure we can take your case.
What Can Prevent Me From Coming To Canada?
Some people are not allowed to enter Canada. The definition used by Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada is “inadmissibility”. There are many reasons, why you may be refused entry to Canada:
- you are a security risk,
- you have committed human or international rights violations,
- you have been convicted of a crime, or you have committed an act outside Canada that would be a crime,
- you have ties to organized crime,
- you have a serious health problem,
- you have a serious financial problem,
- you lied in your application or in an interview,
- you do not meet the conditions in Canada’s immigration law, or
- one of your family members is not allowed into Canada.
If you there is a valid reason why you have to travel to Canada, you may be issued a temporary resident permit.
Please note a Canadian immigration officer will decide if you can enter Canada when you apply for a visa, an Electronic Travel Authorization (eTA), or when you arrive at a port of entry.
Don’t wait until your visa is refused. If you or your dependent family member has an inadmissibility condition, contact our visa consultant today to discuss your options.
Are Government Application Fees Included In Your Prices?
Our prices include professional fees only. HST may be applicable on top of that.
Government fees and disbursements (translation services, medical insurance premiums, medical examination fees, language exam fees, international student admission fees, etc.) are paid directly to government or third parties.
To check IRCC’s processing fees, please refer to their website.
Can I Split My POM/DIY Time Allocated Into 15-min Or 30-min Appointments?
To get most out of your sessions, you can split POM and DIY packages into 1-hour appointments only.
Kindly note, in case you use less than 1 hour at a time, no additional time will be added to the total time allocated.
Will I Get A Disocunt If I Retain Rightway Canada For More Than One Application?
Some of our packages (Duo, Family, Value) already have a built-in discounted price per applicant or service.
However, if you decide to retain our immigration agency for two separate applications, you will be eligible for additional 15% discount on the second package.
Same discount is applicable for all our returning clients. Moreover, if you have already retained us for one of our full representation packages, and now require assistance with your status extension or restoration, you will be eligible for a 50% discount.
