Canada Express Entry has taken a new turn with Canada giving 5000 Candidates invitation to apply.
Nationnewslead reports that the Canadian government has given ITA to 5,000 candidates in its largest Express Entry draw ever.
The development was disclosed in the Canadian immigration newsletter released on Wednesday.
According to the newsletter, a total of 5,000 invitations were issued in this draw, bringing immigration candidates one step closer to Canadian permanent residence.It stated, “Candidates needed a Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) score of at least 472 in order to receive an invitation this round.”
This online news medium understands that express entry is Canada’s immigration application management system for three federal economic-class programs: Federal Skilled Worker Program, Federal Skilled Trades Program, and Canadian Experience Class.
“Candidates in these programs, as well as some Provincial Nominee Programs (PNPs) are given a score based on the CRS. Points are awarded depending on a candidates human capital factors such as age, education, work experience, and language ability in English or French.
“The highest scoring candidates receive an Invitation to Apply (ITA) for Canadian permanent residence in an Express Entry invitation round.
“In case of a tie between candidates, IRCC applies the tie-breaking rule. So, for this draw, candidates who had a CRS score of 472 or more, needed to have submitted their Express Entry profile before October 27 at 06:18:11 UTC in order to receive an invitation.
“This year, the CRS requirement has typically hovered above 470 for all program draws. The Federal Skilled Trades Program-only draw on August 6 invited trades workers with a CRS of 415, and previous Canadian Experience Class-only draws dipped into the 440s. PNP-only draws have higher requirements because Express Entry candidates who receive a provincial nomination are automatically awarded an additional 600 CRS points. PNPs offer alternative pathways to permanent residence for Express Entry candidates who have a lower CRS score,” it added.
