My brother is a dentist from India with 2 years of self employed experience.

What are the options for him to apply to immigrate here?

My questions are as follows:

1. Is Self Employment considered as part of eligibility criteria?

2. Does "Federal Skilled Worker" requires work experience in Canada? Is my brother eligible for this program?

3. I think "Canadian Experience Class" requires work Experience in Canada. Is that correct?
 
1. Self employment can count towards foreign experience if you can prove it, please refer to (proof of work experience):

2. No it doesn't, yes he is. But when he completes 3 years he'll have more points and a better chance

3. Yes

And let me add, if he completes 3 years of experience before the age of 30, and max his ielts he'll have a very good chance of receving an ITA
