Express Entry Consultant North York
Express Entry Consultant North York support helps you check program eligibility and document readiness before committing to a profile or invited application.
Mirzoyan Immigration Services checks your eligibility and records for profile preparation or an application following an Invitation to Apply (ITA). The filing window is 60 days.
In 2026, category-based rounds require separate eligibility checks. Your Regulated Canadian Immigration Consultant (RCIC) explains the evidence needed and confirms the service in writing.
✓ Understand which federal program fits your history
✓ Prepare evidence for the experience and qualifications claimed
✓ Check the application against your invitation
Who is this service for
Before you enter the pool
You live in North York and want to check your Canadian or overseas experience before creating a profile. A North York job or address alone does not establish eligibility. The assessment separates program eligibility from the CRS score used to rank your profile.
While your profile is active
Your work history, language results or family circumstances have changed. Profile updates should reflect supported facts. A higher score can help, but neither pool entry nor professional representation guarantees an invitation.
After an invitation arrives
You need to check the invitation, confirm the claims and prepare the permanent residence application. IRCC gives you 60 days to apply. Tell the consultant your deadline when requesting support.
What Express Entry Application Support Includes
What Express Entry Application Support Includes
01 Program and CRS assessment
Review the Canadian Experience Class (CEC), Federal Skilled Worker Program (FSW) or Federal Skilled Trades Program (FST) requirements against your history. The assessment also checks which CRS claims your records support. Program requirements differ, even when candidates share the same occupation.
02 Profile creation and updates
Prepare the agreed profile work through the IRCC secure account. Check employment dates, language results, education and family information before the profile is submitted or updated.
03 Employment, education and language evidence
Mirzoyan Immigration Services compares employer letters with the employment periods and hours claimed in your profile. Check the relevant National Occupational Classification (NOC), language test and educational credential assessment (ECA), where required.
04 ITA review and current personalized checklist
Recheck eligibility and the score behind the invitation. Complete the online application information to obtain the current personalized checklist. The checklist depends on your circumstances and accompanying family members.
05 Electronic application, fees and client declarations
Prepare the agreed electronic application, supporting uploads and fee-payment steps. You review your information and declarations before submission. Express Entry uses the IRCC secure account, rather than a generic Permanent Residence Portal application package.
06 Post submission support
Review IRCC correspondence and assist with responses included in the written agreement. Additional work requires an agreed scope. An application decision remains with IRCC.

Choose the support you need
The right starting point depends on what you have prepared and whether you already have an invitation.
Profile or application representation
Retain Mirzoyan Immigration Services for profile preparation or an invited application. The written agreement identifies the stages included, your responsibilities and Post submission support. A profile engagement does not automatically include a later permanent residence application.
Review of a client-prepared profile or application
Request a review of the work you have prepared, including an application after an ITA. The agreed review identifies concerns and corrections within its scope. You remain responsible for preparation and submission unless separate representation is agreed.

Document issues we check before submission
A job title that does not explain your duties
The NOC assessment considers the work you actually performed. A title such as “manager” cannot establish the occupation by itself. Your duties, dates and hours need to support the experience claimed.
An employer letter missing required details
IRCC's work-experience instructions call for duties, employment dates, weekly hours, salary and benefits. The letter also needs employer contact information. An immediate supervisor or personnel officer may sign it. An HR signature is not automatically unacceptable.
Funds evidence that leaves money unexplained
Where settlement funds are required, the bank letter must include the information IRCC requests, including average balances over six months. A recent deposit may need supporting records explaining its source and availability. Borrowed money cannot be counted as settlement funds.
Police, language and medical records checked too late
Police certificates generally cover six consecutive months abroad within the last ten years, after age 18. IRCC's police-certificate rules also address delayed certificates and supporting explanations.
Language results and any required ECA must remain valid at the relevant stages. An upfront immigration medical examination is required before submission unless an applicable exemption allows reuse of a previous examination.
If you reside in Canada, a previous examination with a physical exam within five years may qualify for an exemption. Include the previous IME number and check the policy's assessment and medical-surveillance conditions. IRCC must confirm that the exemption applies; living in Canada alone is insufficient.
Eligibility requirements at a glance
The programs share an online system, but their minimum requirements differ. CLB means Canadian Language Benchmark; TEER describes occupational training, education, experience and responsibilities. IRCC's program comparison is the starting point for the assessment.
| Program | Work experience | Language minimum | Other requirements |
|---|---|---|---|
| Canadian Experience Class | At least one eligible year in Canada within the last three years, in TEER 0, 1, 2 or 3. | CLB 7 for TEER 0 or 1; CLB 5 for TEER 2 or 3. | No minimum education requirement or job-offer requirement. Authorized work and the applicable exclusions must be checked. |
| Federal Skilled Worker Program | At least one continuous eligible year within the last ten years, in the primary occupation, TEER 0, 1, 2 or 3. | CLB 7 in all four abilities. | At least secondary education; an ECA for foreign education. At least 67 selection-factor points, separate from CRS ranking. |
| Federal Skilled Trades Program | At least two eligible years within the last five years in a qualifying skilled trade. | CLB 5 speaking and listening; CLB 4 reading and writing. | A qualifying full-time job offer for at least one year or a Canadian certificate of qualification. No minimum education requirement. |
Paid, authorized work on a post-graduation work permit can count toward CEC if it meets the program requirements. You need at least one eligible year within the previous three years. IRCC counts a maximum of 30 hours per week. Work during full-time studies and most self-employment does not count toward this minimum.
Check your dates and authorization against IRCC's CEC requirements.
Settlement funds are not required for CEC. The exemption also covers applicants authorized to work in Canada with a valid job offer. Otherwise, check the current proof-of-funds requirements.

Express Entry Fees and Processing Times
Government charges are separate from professional fees, language tests, medical examinations, translations and other third-party costs. The amounts below follow IRCC's economic immigration fee schedule.
| Government fee | Amount in CAD | What it covers |
|---|---|---|
| Principal applicant | $1,590 | $990 processing fee plus $600 right of permanent residence fee. |
| Accompanying spouse or partner | $1,590 | $990 processing fee plus $600 right of permanent residence fee. |

| Biometrics, if required | $85 per person | Check whether biometrics and a fee are required for your application. |
| Biometrics family maximum | $170 | Eligible family members applying at the same time. |
There are three separate periods: preparing a profile, waiting for an invitation and processing a submitted application. Pool waiting time has no guaranteed end date. The 60-day invitation window is your filing deadline, not IRCC's decision timeline.
Check IRCC's current processing-times tool for the relevant program. Estimates can change and are not a maximum or guarantee. Preparation depends on the records available and the agreed work.

Frequently asked questions
How much does an immigration advisor cost?
The cost depends on whether you need advice, profile preparation, an application review or representation. Mirzoyan Immigration Services confirms professional fees and responsibilities in the written agreement. Compare the published service options before retaining the firm. Government application charges and third-party expenses are separate; a consultation does not automatically include application preparation or submission.
Are immigration consultants worth it?
Professional support can be useful when you need help assessing eligibility, checking profile claims or preparing an invited application. Decide according to your questions and the work included, rather than a promised outcome. IRCC explains that using a representative is optional. Confirm the consultant's licence and responsibilities before retaining them; representation does not guarantee an invitation or approval.
Where can I get free immigration advice?
IRCC's Express Entry information provides free guidance on the programs and application process. You can also use the free 15-minute assessment at Mirzoyan Immigration Services to identify an appropriate service. Advice on your particular circumstances is available through a paid consultation. Check the booking options; an assessment does not include ongoing representation.
What does "invitation to apply for PR" mean?
An Invitation to Apply means IRCC has invited you to submit a permanent residence application through Express Entry. It is not permanent resident status or an approval. You must still support your eligibility and claimed information, complete the application and meet the 60-day filing deadline. IRCC assesses the submitted application before deciding whether to grant permanent residence.
How long does it take to get PR after invitation to apply?
An invitation starts the 60-day application window; it does not start a guaranteed countdown to permanent resident status. Preparation time and IRCC processing are separate. After filing, look up the applicable program in IRCC's processing-times tool. Its estimate may change. A request for further records or circumstances specific to your application can affect the decision date.
