36. How does a candidate get an Invitation to Apply (ITA) for permanent residence?
Category: Invitation to Apply
Candidates in the pool will be issued an ITA for permanent residence when they:
- have a job offer supported by an Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA) from an employer in Canada; or
- have a nomination from a province or territory that has an immigration nominee program; or
- are one of the highest-ranked candidates who qualify for one of the three federal programs under Express Entry.
Note: An ITA does not guarantee a person will be approved for permanent residence. They still have to meet admissibility requirements under Canada’s immigration law (Immigration and Refugee Protection Act).
Apply for your assessment under the Canadian Express entry program.
