Canada Immigration Recent Express Entry Draws

Canada is a popular destination for immigrants seeking new opportunities. The Express Entry system is a key pathway for skilled workers to become permanent residents. In this blog, we’ll explore the latest trends and insights from the past five Express Entry draws, helping you understand what it takes to succeed in your immigration journey.

Express Entry is a system used by Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) to manage applications for permanent residence. It covers federal economic immigration programs like the Federal Skilled Worker Program (FSWP), Federal Skilled Trades Program (FSTP), and Canadian Experience Class (CEC). Candidates are ranked based on the Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS), and those with the highest scores are invited to apply for permanent residence.

Here are the details from the past seven Express Entry draws:

Key Takeaways

Two of the past five draws focused on provincial nominees, with minimum CRS scores of 705 and 816. This indicates that having a provincial nomination can significantly boost your CRS score and improve your chances of being invited to apply.
