LATEST EXPRESS ENTRY DRAW In the Express Entry draw held on December 19, the Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) invited 3200 candidates to apply for permanent residence in Canada.
MINIMUMCRS SCORE DROPS BY 3 POINTS IN LATEST EXPRESS ENTRY DRAW The minimum Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) cut-off score for the invited candidates was 469, three points lower compared to the previous Express Entry draw held on December 11. A lower CRS cut-off score is attributed a shorter interval between these two draws. While Express Entry draws usually take place in a gap of two years, only eight days lapsed between the latest draw and the previous one. Shorter interval means lesser time for the Express Entry pool to be replenished with profiles of eligible candidates, hence low CRS cut-off score Tie-break rule was applied for the latest Express Entry draw as well, the time stamp given being November 14, 2019 at 08:41:33 UTC. It means ITAs were issued to only those candidates with a minimum CRS score of 469, who submitted their Express Entry profiles before the said date and time.
With the latest draw, the total number of ITAs issued by the IRCC so far in the year 2019 is now 85300. Compared to the 89800 ITAs issued in 2018, this is 4500 ITAs shorter. 2018 remains to be the year in which the highest number of ITAs was issued. As per the multi-year immigration levels plan of Canada, the country is planning to admit 85800 new permanent residents in 2020 through Express Entry, compared to 81400 this year. Canada is also planning to increase admission target for Provincial Nominee Programs to 67,800 in 2020 compared to 61,000 this year. Most of the PNPs have at least one stream linked to the Express Entry system.
