They pick people from these groups in different rounds, making sure they meet the right eligibility and qualifications in the Express Entry group. It helps make sure the right people get a chance to come to Canada.

On May 31, 2023, Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) established a category-based selection mechanism for Express Entry to guarantee the selection of applicants with particular skills, training, or linguistic abilities.
