I apologize if this has already been asked before, but I couldn’t find a previous post.

    It used to be that there was a website where you could basically just check your eligibility, but the system got somehow even more complicated so checking “express” eligibility is the best I can do: https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/immigrate-canada/express-entry/check-score.html

    Generally speaking, the highest-scoring applicants get in first. If that fails, maybe there’s some niche provincial program or something, but you’ll need to hire an immigration lawyer to have a chance of figuring it out.

    If you do get let in, I recommend driving up in an RV. The housing market in Canada is still really fucked, and that’s a decent fallback option. Winter-safe ones exist, but I also see people building little insulated enclosures, and in any case cold season is nearly over right now.

      I see even with express entry I’d need to take a test to for my English proficiency.

      Guess this’ll be a long haul as I apply to jobs and make myself more appetizing.
