New IRCC Express Entry Draws With 2,113 ITAs for PR | Canada Immigration

With two new rounds of invitations hosted by Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC), Canada is still giving priority to skilled immigration through its Express Entry system. A total of 2,113 individuals were invited to apply for permanent residency as a result of these drawings.

These illustrations highlight Canada’s dedication to embracing highly qualified individuals and meeting labor market demands. This piece will analyze the specifics of these drawings, the invitees, and the implications for Canadian immigration in the future.

Introduction

On October 9, 2024, Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada sent out 500 invitations to apply for permanent status through a fresh Express Entry draw. As anticipated, this draw focused on applicants with a comprehensive ranking system score of 539 or higher under the Canadian Experience Class.

Additionally, the IRCC invited 1,613 individuals with a complete ranking system score of 743 or higher under the Provincial Nominee Program on October 7. The information for this week’s Express Entry drawings is provided below.

Key details of the CEC draw
  • Minimum CRS score: 539
  • Number of ITAs issued: 500
  • Tie-breaking rule: The date on which each candidate’s profile was submitted determined the cut-off when there were multiple candidates with a CRS score of 539. Applicants were invited to submit their Express Entry profiles no later than February 20, 2024, at 02:57:40 UTC.

Given the low amount of invitations, we can anticipate additional Express Entry draws this week, particularly a category-based draw, as the week began with a PNP-only draw and is currently underway with the Canadian Experience Class.

There are 209,317 individuals in the Express Entry Pool as of August 14, 2024. Let’s look at how these candidates’ Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) ratings are distributed:

Keep up with the most recent trends in Express Entry as the Immigration and Refugee Council of Canada (IRCC) continues to influence Canada’s immigration environment by providing tailored draws with possibilities for certain programs and professions.

Express Entry Overview

Launched in 2015, Express Entry is an application management system that chooses candidates for economic immigration based on urgent labor market demands. Federal Skilled Worker, Federal Skilled Trades, and CEC are the three programs it oversees. The CRS factors—work experience, age, education, language ability, and extra points for Canadian ties—are used to evaluate candidates.

Category-Based Selection in Express Entry

Category-based selection draws, which were only implemented in May 2023, assist IRCC in addressing certain labor and demographic shortfalls. Healthcare, STEM fields, trades, transportation, agriculture and agri-food, and fluency in French are the categories. Despite having lower average CRS scores, these draws still need highly ranked applications from the Express Entry pool.

How Express Entry System Provincial Nominee Programs Operate

Employer-driven immigration programs known as Provincial Nominee Programs (PNP) enable participating Canadian provinces & territories to nominate people who fit particular labor market and economic requirements. Candidates who are nominated get an extra 600 points toward their Express Entry total ranking score, which considerably raises the likelihood that they will be invited to apply for permanent residence.

How Does Express Entry Draws Work?

The candidate uses the Express Entry system to handle skilled worker applications for permanent residency. Candidates fill out an online profile, and things like language proficiency, education, and prior work experience determine their scores. The top scorers are allowed to apply for permanent residency.

To take part in Express Entry, candidates must be eligible for one of the federal economic immigration programs.

Final Thoughts

The most recent Express Entry draws show how committed Canada is to attracting skilled workers from all over the world and giving thousands of candidates a chance to obtain permanent residence. Prospective immigrants to Canada should stay updated about upcoming draws as the Immigration and Refugee Committee of Canada (IRCC) continues to oversee its immigration targets.

By carefully planning and preparing, prospective immigrants can fully benefit from the opportunities provided by Canada’s changing immigration system.
