Provincial and Territorial Governments may also invites candidates from the Express Entry pool
Immigration System of "Express Entry" to Canada will have two steps:
Immigration candidates will create an online profile in the Express Entry electronic system, and qualified candidates will be added to the electronic pool of candidates
Immigration candidates with the highest-ranking in the Express Entry electronic pool will be invited to apply for permanent residence in Canada
The Federal Government of Canada intends to process within 6 months the immigration applications of candidates who will be invited to apply for permanent residence under the System of "Express Entry" to Canada.
