the CanadaVisa Team - 20 September, 2017
In the latest Express Entry draw, which took place on September 20, 2017, a total of 2,871 candidates with a minimum Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) score of 433 were issued an Invitation to Apply (ITA). Therefore, candidates in the Express Entry pool with a score of 433 or above at the time of the draw may now apply for Canadian permanent resident status.
The most recent draw was not restricted to one specific program; candidates in all programs managed through Express Entry were in a position to receive an ITA. In order to be eligible, individuals are first required to meet the criteria of one of the three immigration programs managed through the Express Entry system — the Federal Skilled Worker Class (FSWC), Federal Skilled Trades Class (FTSC), or Canadian Experience Class (CEC).
Once candidates enter the Express Entry pool, they are assigned a CRS score based on factors including civil status information, education, work experience, language ability, and other criteria. This score determines their ranking in the pool. During Express Entry draws conducted by Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC), the highest-ranking candidates are issued ITAs. Candidates who are offered an ITA may submit an application for Canadian permanent resident status. Learn more about increasing CRS score and ranking.
