Getting Canadian permanent residency (Canada PR) is not a cake walk. It requires patience, discipline, dedication and a lot of efforts. Because the basic procedure of moving in Canada is complex and extensive, going along sequenced steps is the best one can do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We will try to break down this long procedure into 10 comprehensive steps. Tracing them one after another will help you keep the track of your progress and move forward without feeling lost.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, let\u2019s get started with the 10 steps in getting Canada PR through express entry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is a core step of confirming your suitability to apply for express entry. Visit NOC (National Occupational Classification) website to find the suitable NOC job code. This code should define your current or former job status. Having NOC code is vital to see whether your work experience aligns with the express entry requirements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
