Overview
Who CEC Is For
The Canadian Experience Class is designed for temporary residents who already have skilled work experience in Canada — typically PGWP holders, LMIA work permit holders, and bridging open work permit (BOWP) holders.
Because IRCC can verify your work history through Canadian tax records and employer pay stubs, CEC applications carry the lowest refusal risk of all federal economic programs when prepared correctly.
