Canada Extends Invitations to 763 PNP Candidates in Latest Express Entry Draw


Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) has recently issued Invitations to Apply (ITAs) in the latest Express Entry draw.

In this draw, 763 candidates received invitations through a Provincial Nominee Program (PNP)-specific selection.

To qualify, candidates needed to achieve a minimum Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) score of 690.

Today’s draw is the first in August, following a record-breaking number of Express Entry draws in July. Throughout July, Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) issued over 25,000 Invitations to Apply (ITAs) across nine different draws.

This makes July the busiest month for Express Entry draws since the system began in 2015, a big increase from June, which had only one draw.

Four of the draws in July were category-based, with two focusing on candidates with French language skills. The lowest Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) score of the month, 400, was in the July 18 draw for French-speaking candidates.

The other two category-based draws targeted candidates in healthcare and trade occupations.

The remaining five draws included two for the Canadian Experience Class (CEC) and three for the Provincial Nominee Program (PNP). The highest CRS score of the month was 739, in the July 2 PNP draw.

The mix of program-specific draws shows that IRCC is following through on its plan to focus more on candidates already living in Canada. This is part of their effort to reduce the number of temporary residents while still meeting their permanent residency goals.
