UPDATE: Changes coming on November 19
Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) describes the changes to be brought in this week as improvements to the Express Entry system.
The way in which points are awarded for a qualifying job offer will be changed. Importantly, job offers will no longer be worth 600 CRS points. Instead, a job offer may be worth 200 points (if the offer is in an occupation contained in a Major Group 00 of the National Occupational Classification) or 50 points (for all other job offers in a skilled occupation).
An ITA will be valid for 90 days. Until now, candidates who receive an ITA have had only 60 days to submit a complete application.
The candidates who remain in the pool, as well as individuals thinking of creating a profile in the near future — the future looks bright.
