The Canadian government has introduced category-based rounds of invitations as part of their permanent residence program. These rounds specifically target candidates who meet the eligibility criteria set by the Minister and align with specific economic goals. Eligibility is based on factors such as language proficiency, work experience in specific TEER categories of the NOC, and education.
