Canada invited 381 Express Entry candidates to apply for permanent residence on April 28.
Invited candidates needed to have previously received a nomination from a (PNP). This is why the cutoff score was 717 because PNP candidates automatically get 600 points added to their human capital score. This is the lowest score requirement of any PNP-only draw held so far this year. Without the nomination, the lowest-scoring candidates would have had 117 points.
As per the tie-break rule, candidates who had the minimum score of 717 were only invited if they submitted their profile before March 16, 2021 at 21:20:50 UTC. (IRCC) publishes the cutoff time for the tie-break rule as an administrative requirement, regardless of whether there was an actual tie.
