Canada invited 521 candidates to apply for permanent residence on September 15.
All invited candidates had previously received nominations under a (PNP), which amounts to an automatic 600 points added to their base Express Entry score. As a result of the award, candidates needed a score of at least 732 in order to be invited.
Express Entry candidates invited today now have 60 days to apply for permanent residence.
In the previous PNP draw two weeks ago, (IRCC) invited 635 candidates with scores of at least 764.
18 PNP draws, more than 100,000 ITAs
Since the start of 2021, IRCC has only held PNP and (CEC) Express Entry draws. This is now the 18th PNP-specific draw of the year.
Usually, IRCC holds a PNP draw on Wednesdays followed by a CEC draw on Thursday. However, the CEC draw expected on September 2 did not come. The most recent CEC draw happened yesterday.
The first time the Express Entry draw pattern was broken this year was on February 13, when IRCC invited every single CEC candidate in the pool. After that, it did not hold another CEC draw for more than a month. IRCC also held an irregular CEC draw in .
Compared to the same time last year, IRCC聽has nearly doubled the number of (ITAs) issued. This year, the department is aiming to admit through the Express Entry system.
The minimum score requirements have been up and down due to the nature of CEC- and PNP-only draws. CEC draws typically have lower cutoffs because the draws are concentrated in the one group of applicants. They are not competing with others in the聽, for example. So, with bigger draw sizes, IRCC can invite more candidates, thus bringing the score down.
PNP candidates automatically get 600 points with their provincial nomination, so PNP draws will always be higher than any other type of Express Entry draw.
What is Express Entry?
Canada鈥檚 most popular immigration programs use the online Express Entry system to manage applications. There are three programs that use the online system: the , the聽, and the聽. PNP candidates in the Express Entry pool have already qualified for one of these programs. They then applied for a nomination from a province and received it, which raised their score by 600 points.
Express Entry uses a points-based system, the聽聽(CRS), to rank candidates鈥� profiles. The top-scoring candidates receive an聽聽(ITA), and can then apply for permanent residency.
From there, an IRCC officer reviews their application and makes a decision. They will ask for biometrics, and may set up an interview or ask for more documents.
If the application is approved, IRCC issues a Confirmation of Permanent Residence (COPR). Approved permanent residents can then complete the landing process. If they are outside Canada, they can access聽聽to help them with the first steps for聽.
