  2. Immigration: Skilled Workers The Point System The point system measures six factors related to the applicant and assigns a score to each factor. If the applicant’s total score meets the pass mark then they potentially qualify for immigration to Canada under the Skilled Worker category. A total of 100 points are available and the pass mark is currently set at 67.

  3. Immigration: Skilled Workers The Point System The factors measured under the point system are: • age (10 points) • education (25 points) • work experience (24 points) • language skills (English and French) (21 points) • arranged employment (10 points) • adaptability (10 points)

  4. Immigration: Skilled Workers Other requirements: Have an Arranged Employment Offer (AEO) in Canada Where the Skilled Worker applicant is already working in Canada with a work permit or is able to get an approved job offer in a skilled occupation, this will qualify an applicant even if the applicant’s occupation does not appear on the list of in-demand occupations, assuming they also obtain 67 points in the assessment.

  5. Immigration: Skilled Workers Other requirements: Have worked for at least one year in a listed In-demand Occupation The current list of In-demand Occupations was released on June 25, 2011, and may be subject to change based on any future review of Canada’s labour market needs.
