First All-Program Express Entry Draw since March 4

Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) resorted to all-program Express Entry for the first time since the present travel restrictions in Canada were put in place on March 18. 

July 8 draw considered all candidates in the pool including Federal Skilled Worker Program (FSWP) and the Federal Skilled Trades Class (FSTC). 

IRCC issued a total of 3900 ITAs to candidates having a minimum required Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) score of 478. Until now, the draws would consider candidates only under Canadian Experience Class or Provincial Nominee Programs. 

A CRS score is majorly based on factors like age, education qualification, work experience, language proficiency apart from others.  

 

British Columbia invites Tech workers and International Students 

British Columbia issued 57 invitations with a minimum provincial score of 80. The invited candidates were qualified under Skilled worker and International Graduate categories of the Express Entry B.C. and Skills Immigration streams.

Additionally, Alberta released its PNP draw results conducted on June 17. Close to 187 candidates having a required CRS cut-off score as low as 303 got nominated. They are now a step closer to apply for permanent residence in Canada

Candidates with provincial nominations add up to 600 points to their overall CRS score. It would effectively guarantee them an ITA for permanent residence in a subsequent Express Entry draw.
