French-language proficiency

Not tied to a NOC list. Requires French test results of at least NCLC 7 in speaking, listening, reading and writing, plus that round's other requirements.

Category ≠ automatic invitation

Being eligible for a category doesn't guarantee an ITA. Candidates are still ranked by CRS score within that category's round.

Canadian-experience-only categories

Physicians, senior managers and researchers "with Canadian work experience" require the qualifying year to be worked in Canada — not abroad.

Skilled military recruits

Requires Foreign Skilled Military Applicant status, 10+ years continuous service, a Canadian Armed Forces job offer, and a 2-year post-secondary credential.
