Express entry targeted draw

[mapleworld]

I just found this consultation page on the IRCC website. No idea how long it has been posted, but they are not receiving the feedback after January 8, 2023.

According to this page, there are four possible categories in addition to the previous three categories. The one needs to qualify with CEC, FSW, or FST before being considered for the targeted draw.

Category-based selection is limited to candidates who qualify for the programs managed under Express Entry, including: the Canadian Experience Class, the Federal Skilled Worker Program and the Federal Skilled Trades Program. It will comprise a portion of overall invitations to apply, and invitations based on the Comprehensive Ranking System scores and individual programs will remain.

As I understand, the overall CRS score cut-off will be higher when considering the targeted draw. But it's a good sign that they are not abandoned the entire old CRS system.

That’s great to see! I suspected they won’t abandon the entire pure CRS-based system, nice to get some confirmation. Yeah scores will be higher than in the past but I suspect it would be in the 480s range
