Immigrate to Canada as a Skilled Professional

Federal Skilled Worker Program (FSWP) with Cougar Immigration

Are you an experienced professional with foreign work experience, education, and language skills? The Federal Skilled Worker Program (FSWP) is one of Canada’s most popular pathways to Permanent Residency under the Express Entry system—designed specifically for skilled workers living outside Canada.

At Cougar Immigration, we help you prepare a strong, optimized Express Entry profile and guide you every step of the way to permanent residency.

What is the Federal Skilled Worker Program (FSWP)?

The FSWP is one of three federal immigration programs managed through Canada’s Express Entry system. It is ideal for skilled professionals with:

• Foreign work experience
• Post-secondary education
• Language proficiency in English or French
• Intent to live anywhere in Canada except Quebec

Applicants are ranked based on the Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) and may receive an Invitation to Apply (ITA) for permanent residency.

Who Can Apply Under FSWP?

To be eligible for the Federal Skilled Worker Program, you must:

• Have at least 1 year of continuous full-time (or equivalent part-time) skilled work experience in the past 10 years
• Meet the language requirement: CLB 7 in English or French
• Possess a foreign or Canadian post-secondary credential
• Complete an Educational Credential Assessment (ECA) if your degree is from outside Canada
• Score at least 67 points out of 100 on the FSW eligibility grid
• Be admissible to Canada

A high CRS score boosts your chances of getting selected for PR. Cougar Immigration helps you maximize your profile to stay competitive.
