CANADA ISSUES 4500 INVITATIONS IN THE LARGEST IMMIGRATION DRAW EVER

The latest round of the Express Entry draw took place on Wednesday, February 19, 2020. 4,500 invitations to apply for permanent residency were issued today. Setting the record for the largest number of invitations issued in a single draw.

The lowest Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) score in this round was 470, with the tie-breaking rule cut-off on January 13, 2020, at 10:52:52 UTC. The latest cut-off score is a 2-point drop from the last draw on February 5, 2020.

The total number of invitations issued this year is now 14,800. This is only 17 percent of the 2020 target to bring about 85,800 new immigrants to Canada through the Express Entry stream.

The increase in the number of invitations is exciting news for you if you want to immigrate to Canada. With the immigration targets aligned with the year’s timeline, it is safe to say that we can look forward to a few more large draws like this one.

The Express Entry program is the most popular pathway for skilled and economic-class immigrants to enter Canada and become permanent residents.

A number of candidates are selected from the express entry pool (Currently at 144,042 profiles) every few weeks and invited to apply for permanent residency through one of the three programs: Federal Skilled Worker ProgramFederal Skilled Trades Program, and Canadian Experience Class.
