What is a Canadian Experience Class?

Canada Experience Class PR program is one of the three famous programs of Express Entry. The CEC stream helps those who have Canadian work experience and want to settle permanently in Canada. IRCC is prominently inviting more and more candidates which are holding Canadian experience and temporary residence status.

This helps regularise the candidates with temporary status and gives them a chance to settle permanently in the country as they have more chances to be successful by holding work experience in Canada.
