After an 18-19 month hiatus, Canada has finally held an Express Entry all-program draw. This is big news for every Canada immigration aspirant wanting to gain permanent settlement in Canada. To qualify for this draw the applicants needed a minimum qualifying CRS score of 557.
Now, this comes as a shock to many people whose EE profiles are in the EE pool. A recap of the draw trend patterns and their frequency shows the following:
August 06, 2020
September 14, 2021
December 23, 2021
In short, before the pausing of all-program/FST/CEC draws the country was soaring with foreign skilled workers claiming PR. But due to the advent of covid and major application backlog, IRCC decided to implement a pause on the same.
Now that the backlog is lower, Canada is continuing the older pattern of draws.
However, the First 2022 Express Entry all program draw issues 1500 ITAs. This comes as a shock because everyone was eyeing the older draw pattern which has been selecting 3000 – 5000 applicants in each draw. So, for IRCC to just issue 1500 ITAs with a CRS cut-off as high as 557 does sound disheartening.
But owing to the history of EE draws patterns, we can expect IRCC to raise ITAs and lower the CRS cut-off. And as the draws now resume, we can also see the frequency of FSW/CEC/FST and PNP draws. This will help us understand draw trends, and patterns and predict the chances of selection for Canada PR.
Recently Canada is introducing new upgrades to the EE System. And to other Canadian immigration programs. For an individual to know all this is very difficult. As the nature and impact of such upgrades can be difficult to understand. Much awaited July 06 2022 EE draw issues 1500 ITAs for PR. And will issue a higher number in other draws.
