Yes, first make sure you have enough points and skill type 0, A or B job.

You can calculate you points here : http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/crs-tool.asp

You can check the Express Entry rounds of invitations here : https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/immigrate-canada/express-entry/become-candidate/rounds-invitations.html

In the last round (22nd December), they picked files with minimum 446 CRS score. Just you know, every round score is different.

Would like an answer too, guys.
well yes but there is a catch u have to first qualify for CEC then u can open an express entry profile. Once the profile is open u will get points(CRS) depending on various factors like age, ur education, years of experience etc. Once u have a CRS u wait for the draw. Every two weeks or so there is a draw if the number picked in the draw is equal to or less than you CRS score u will be invited to apply for PR. Till ur invited u cannot apply for CEC.
