Canada remains the #1 destination for Nepali skilled workers, with a historic target of welcoming over 500,000 new permanent residents this year. For applicants from Kathmandu, the opportunities have never been better, especially with the Express Entry system.

What is Changing in 2025?

The IRCC has introduced Category-Based Selection. This means even if your overall CRS score is slightly lower, you may still receive an Invitation to Apply (ITA) if you have experience in specific fields:

• Healthcare: Nurses, Doctors, and Lab Techs. • STEM Professions: Software Developers, Data Scientists, and Engineers. • Trades: Electricians, Plumbers, and Carpenters.

Many Nepali applicants get stuck at a CRS score of 440-460. Here is how Global Gateway helps you jump to 500+:
