The Federal Skilled Worker Program (FSWP) is one of Canada’s main immigration pathways managed through the Express Entry system. It is designed for skilled professionals with foreign work experience who want to become permanent residents of Canada.
FSWP evaluates candidates based on factors such as education, work experience, language ability, age, and adaptability. Eligible candidates can create an Express Entry profile and compete for an invitation to apply for Canadian permanent residence.
