IRCC Holds Latest Express Entry Draw Targets 3000 CEC Applicants

May 31, 2024: After 2 years 8 months and 16 days gap, IRCC holds latest Express Entry draw targets 3000 CEC applicants. This is wonderful news, as Canada is back to holding PNP (May 30, 2024) and CEC draws. Besides, it should not come as a surprise if we see Canada holding an FSW and or FST category draw as well.

Furthermore, the details of the May 30, 2024, much-awaited latest Express Entry draw targeting CEC category are:

  • Firstly, 3000 applicants have an ITA to apply for a Canada PR visa.
  • Secondly, the CRS cut-off for CEC applicants is 522.
  • Also, the tie-breaking rule applicable is March 19, 2024, at 18:58:58 UTC.

The last CEC category draw before the current one was held on Sep 14, 2021. In comparison to the same, the latest Express Entry draw targeting CEC applicants shows the following updates:

  • Firstly, the current draw selects 1000 more CEC applicants.
  • Secondly, the CRS cut-off is higher by 60 points.

However, the beginning of PNP and CEC draws is a great sign for Canada PR aspirants. Because earlier Canada was holding general and category-based draws. But now we may get to see a variety of draws from its 6 draw types such as:

  • General or all-program draw.
  • FSW draw.
  • FST draw.
  • CEC draw.
  • PNP draw.
  • Category-based draws:
    • STEM occupations draw.
    • Healthcare occupations draw.
    • Trade occupations draw.
    • Transportation occupations draw.
    • Agriculture & Agri-food occupations draw.
    • French language skills draw.

 

Effect of the latest Express Entry draw targeting 3000 CEC applicants on upcoming draws

In short, it will be interesting to see how the draw patterns emerge. Because we had just gotten comfortable with the combination of a General and category-based consecutive draws pattern every bi-weekly. Now, we see a PNP draw on May 30, 2024, and a CEC draw on May 31, 2024.

Thus, now no one can be sure of what to expect next. However, permanent residency applicants will be in for a treat.
