Independent Immigration Class:
This third class includes skilled workers, entrepreneurs, investors and self-employed persons, applying on their own initiative and assessed against the point system. The Selection Criteria focuses on age, education, occupation, experience, and facility in one or both of the official languages, personal suitability and a bonus for eligible relatives living in Canada.
Provincial nomination programs fall under this category. Provinces have their own point system and have a limited number of nominations they can issue on an annual basis. Immigrant that receives provincial nomination, does not have to meet federal selection criteria but must meet the health, criminal conduct, and financial criteria set forth by the federal government.
