Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) has conducted its latest Express Entry draw, issuing 6,300 invitations to apply (ITAs) to Canadian Experience Class (CEC) candidates. The minimum Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) score for this draw was 515, marking the lowest score of the year in a non-category based selection draw.

Understanding Express Entry

Express Entry is Canada’s application management system for three economic immigration programs:

  • Federal Skilled Worker Program (FSWP)
  • Canadian Experience Class (CEC)
  • Federal Skilled Trades Program (FSTP)

These programs use the Comprehensive Ranking System to evaluate candidates based on factors such as occupation, age, education, language ability, and work experience. Introduced in 2015, Express Entry aims to process successful applications within six months.

Category-Based Selection in Express Entry

In 2023, IRCC introduced category-based selection to target candidates who can address specific workforce needs or strengthen demographics. The six categories, which will remain in place until 2025, are:

  • Healthcare occupations
  • Science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) professions
  • Trades occupations
  • Transport occupations
  • Agriculture and agri-food occupations
  • French-language proficiency

Candidates must be in the Express Entry pool to be eligible for category-based draws, which are not specific to any one program.
