About the Arrima Expression of Interest Pool
Arrima was introduced in 2018 to manage the pool of applicants for the QRSWP and to simplify an application intake system that was formerly based on a 鈥渇irst-come, first-served鈥� approach.
Candidates 18 years of age and older interested in immigrating to Quebec through the QRSWP must first create an EOI profile in Arrima, after which they are placed in a pool of candidates and given a score based on a list of criteria.
In July, Quebec launched a new points system to rank the profiles of immigration candidates in the Arrima expression of interest pool.
Up to 1,320 points are available, of which 580 are for human capital factors and 740 for factors related to Quebec鈥檚 labour market needs.
The human capital criteria include French language ability, bilingual ability, age, work experience, and education.
The labour market factors include work experience in a field where there is a shortage, education in Quebec, work experience in the rest of Canada, and job opportunities inside and outside the Greater Montreal area. This last criterion carries significant weight since job offers outside the Montreal metropolitan area can be worth up to 380 points, while offers in Montreal obtain 180 points.
MIFI then invites the most qualified candidates to apply for permanent selection and candidates generally have 60 days to submit a complete immigration application, pay the required fees and present all other required documents. Quebec aims to issue CSQs to invited candidates who have provided all the required information within six months.
