Express Entry: Is it the best plan? The good and the bad!

I declare myself a fan of Express entry as

you have seen in the last few videos

I've focused on this and it's because in order to

Express entry is an opportunity for me

that you have to be evaluating

whether you are outside of Canada or

even within Canada because the

Express entry has many benefits that

many have to take advantage and although

you in your mind have thought of how

that this is impossible, it is more possible

that we believe But obviously in life

Everything has good and bad things about

that's so good it doesn't give much made me porava

a friend of mine eh And so I know that there are

things that are very good but also

things that are not so good So in

this video I am going to tell you

the good and the bad of Express entry voy

to leave the bad last so that

you realize then that what is the most important

that you have to know that you do not

is so positive about this option and therefore

obviously you are going to have more things

in the mind that they can leave in the

comments Hello everyone My name is Ed

Ramirez I am an immigration attorney

Canadian and my job is to serve

you throughout your process until you

arrive in Canada and stay here as

residents or citizens So

Let's start I have a list in my hand

first benefit of traveling to Canada for

Express entry is that they arrive in Canada

as permanent residents look there

two ways to get to resident Canada

permanent or temporary resident

is as a student worker or tourist

and when you arrive in Canada as a resident

temporary student worker or tourist

one begins as that struggle to reach

someday to permanent residency

then you kind of have to

get experience work or a boss

who hires you to graduate to the

university pay a lot of money for

and spend, as in Canada, a few

we can say about 3 cu 5 7 years as

temporary residents paying taxes

living not so good things until

we can finally become residents

permanent while for the Express

entry one lands in Canada like that

you dream of doing when you are in

Canada as a student For example, if I

in my time when I was having a hard time

I would have had an option that told me

Well you can delete what is

and apply directly to the

permanent residence from Venezuela

for example Uy I would have gone to apply

from Venezuela because I had a hard time

There are people in Canada who also

then it is difficult for them to reach

Canada as a permanent resident is a

mega Mega Mega next benefit Applies

for all nationalities look no

it does not matter if you are from any country

latam Europe Asia Africa you can

Express entry may also be applied because it does not

distinguishes between its citizenship

that's another benefit on top of this

Applies to all professions

parentheses there are professions that are

with special categories that

have better let's say they have like a no

more points but have as a form of

to be media in a more relaxed way

then if you are an attorney your score

is going to be much higher than it would be if you

Remember that there are

five categories of professionals who

are in transportation

agriculture

and IT engineers

e trades and the medical part are five

areas of careers that have as

benefits, but in principle any

professional can apply by Express

The next benefit is not as important as the following.

costly to apply I am going to leave you here a

tablita the processing fees these

processing F that you see here are

costs to apply for residency

directly, i.e. you

you do not have to pay anything else

then as the cost to the

benefit is not as high pending with

one good thing about this plan is

that can live eye can live in

anywhere in Canada except in

Quebec ent when you map the

Canada and you say HM Where do I want to go

to become a permanent resident you

can choose any province that

you want except for the province of

Quebec So they are not bound as

some people to go to yucon or to the

provinces a little more extreme in

Canada and a little more desolate you

you can live wherever you wish in

country and can be changed from

province apart from this they can study

another

benefit me as a temporary resident

as a student it cost me my master's degree

approximately $40,000 a year 4,000 a year

year but as a permanent resident

I did a very similar master's degree at the

same university and paid 9,000, which is

40,000 as a student to 9000 as

permanent resident obviously

Canada protects its own then

channel a benefit to residents

and citizens to pay a lot of money

minus the cost of education if you already

are permanent residents So

can come to Canada to make their

studies what you want already as

permanent resident other benefit not

are tied to a boss then

when you travel to Canada on a Canadian

work because obviously one cannot

change company because the permit is

closed if one is, let's say, there with that

employer because your Word permit depends on

of that company and there are people who

are not very happy with what they do

or want to open their own company

but if you are in Canada with a

closed work permit can not

to do any of this you have to wait for

the residence while arriving at

Canada as a permanent resident there is no

no ties that bind you to a

employer

Canadian in addition to this you the

next step they have to take in

as far as paperwork is concerned is citizenship but

if you are not interested in becoming a citizen

Canadian As you can honestly

remain a resident for the rest of your life

permanent does not have to do

nothing else or get another visa

permanent residence is permanent

Okay the next point that for me is

one very good thing is that it has all the

benefits of a citizen except

Obviously, the right to vote and the

passport then if you in Canada

as a permanent resident you can

start your own business you can study

you can work with us you can

reinvent yourself You too can eh

take out bank loans to buy a

home to have interest installments is too much

lower than the temporary ones, i.e. there are

many benefits that you for being

permanent resident already has the

Express entry used to be suere demanding or

is when you think of Express entry

My God, they are super profiles.

advanced with people with phd master's degree

advanced English intermediate French 5

years of experience not Better said or

geniuses That was before but now the

Express entry has greatly reduced the

level of demand and people with

profiles normal people who go to the

university work judicious study

have an intermediate level of English

intermediate French can aspire to the

Express entry things that were not known before

could all that I have just said is

obviously very good but even

as I spoke in my mind I thought Ah

this is also not very good because there are

as a negative element so now

we are going to evaluate the things that are not so

good Express entry okay And I just

write another first thing that is so

good the Express entry is that it does not work

for Quebec So let's say you

you are in your home country and you Dream

how to live in Quebec I do not judge it I live

in Quebec Quebec is very very very very beautiful

The province of Quebec is beautiful

city of Montreal is a city

beautiful but if you want to land

in Canada with the Express in Quebec no

serves Quebec has its own plan

called arrima so go and look for this one

option for Quebec So when you

say they want to travel to Canada for the

Express entry and make your profile can

choose any province in Canada

except Quebec

another thing Express is not good at

entry is that it requires financial solvency

Honestly, I don't see it as a bad thing

makes perfect sense But it can still be

that you are amazed why he asks

solvency these amounts that

I put here is not that you have to

pay Canada these amounts that are

here are amounts that the government

Canadian asks that you have in your

bank account and that they are available

the amounts to realize that you

has How to stay in Canada Because

if you were watching what I said

previously You are traveling to Canada

without being tied to a boss or anything else

cces does not know Canada if you have a

employment and as you have the same

rights that a Canadian you can

and what the government

want to make sure that you have

how to stay in Canada for the first year

so this amount that is here

is for you to maintain yourself and your

family also another point that is not so

good thing is that the Express entry takes into

counts age and gives points for age

So from a certain age you are going to

to start losing points e.g.

when you are 35 years old you are going to start

to lose points for each year life year

year of life and those points that

loses the can say

compensate with a higher level of education

mastery or with raising your level of

English to more advanced or French from

intermediate advanced all those things that

you are going to lose points for age can

compensate it with something else that you

to your credit I have had customers

40-somethings who apply for the

Express entry can get the

permanent residence because they have

a lot of experience at the studio level

too high high has English level

advanced and advanced French So the

points they lose are compensated with

other elements usually Express

entry is for people with a high level of

level of education is quite high.

if you have studies, let's say of

high school or you finished high school

and did not go to college and did not do

a College career your score will not go up.

to be sufficient, it is important that

you have a study level of

College at least University or

master's degree to achieve the following scores

required an element that is not good

that many people say is something

very negative that I see it as

well it's not that good but neither is the

end of the world is that they arrive in Canada without

work then by

example, as you know, there are careers

as doctors and lawyers that we have to

pass the professional order in Canada

In order to practice we have to pass the

professional order let's say that I am

in Venezuela as a lawyer or as a doctor

I apply for the Express entry gives me the

permanent residency landed in Canada

does not mean that because it reaches

Canada as a permanent resident

order of lawyers will tell me to have your

your welcome to Canada credential is

lawyer and also to the doctors we did not reach

to Canada so we can start from scratch

we can work on something else we can

to study in order to make the

our profession and start

from scratch instead of Modesta Who paid from

day 40,000 spend attorney we can pay

a master's degree 9,000 and start from scratch

it is obviously a new adventure because

we will resign from our positions of

lawyers or doctors in our country to

travel to Canada start from scratch But

knowing that we are going to do it as

permanent residents if you travel

as an engineer as an architect as an

as an accountant as a teacher like any other

professional review what you need to do

to be able to pursue a career there are

careers that do not need to make any

element of the professional order and

can enter Canada to work

directly but still the lawyers

can work as assistants

administrative assistants and

for these positions do not need to have the

professional order then it is not very

good but it's not the end of the world come

on there are worse things the following the

permanent residency is not as

and I am going to focus on two

things The first is that it is not so

permanent because there is an obligation to

permanent residence in which you in

a period of 5 years there must be

lived in Canada 2s years what is this

let's say I get the residency

permanent in I'm going to make it easy 2020

means that from 2020 to 2025 I will have

that having lived in Canada for 2 years is

730 days or 735 days I search and place it

here to make it clearer those

730 days must be may be may not

be consecutive can be that I lived

in Canada 300 days I went to my home country and I

I stayed in my country for 2 years I came back I stayed

the rest But the important thing is that I in

those 5 years in Canada I respected the two

years of permanent residence

respect for the one that is not so

permanent Because if you commit

some type of crime, which may be

considered a criminal charge, i.e.

a crime punishable under the federal criminal code of

Canada you will be inadmissible A

Canada so you can be

deported to the country then you can

lose their permanent residency AND

also if you got your residency

based on some type of permanent

misrepresentation which is lies

You can also have your residence

permanent revoked But let's hope that

that never happens to you please Y

if it happens to them now as I am a lawyer

I can be of service to you at any time

process of that style that is much more

complicated here I am at your service and

another reason why the Express

entry is not as positive as it is good

because it takes into account the couple I have

had profiles in customer inquiries

wonderful with super good profiles

but has a partner that the partner is

for example, he became a trader and

is a very successful person has

companies companies do not have to pay a lot of money to

I know what and has devoted his entire life to

and did not study, and the other

couple dedicated themselves to studying the level of

advanced English advanced French wants

that is to say that this profile of the couple that

studied and went to college and has

work experience as an employee and

all this is going to be damaged by the

couple who did not study who are still

being suere successful or successful but not

has the basic elements required by the

Express entry then That couple that does not

may be that it destroys the

profile in which it is qualified Because when

one applies the Express entry in couple is

very important that everything that the

main person does i.e. the eca

for studies English test

French exam experience the same

the couple so that both partners can

get the points to Express entry

then I just talked a lot but

all that I have just said are like the

important basics the good and the bad of

this option for me The bad thing is not so

bad for me, that is, for me the

is very small compared to

the benefits that tra exent but I think

that is important for you to know

and get to know them so that they know what they are

I send you a kiss for

all great that they are very well for

here at your service bye bye
