Latest Draw for Express Entry
The IRCC ranks Express Entry potential candidates in the federal pool using a points-based framework called the Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS). About every 2 to 3 weeks, IRCC sends out invitations to the best candidates in the federal pool. The invitation to apply is a full-fledged application for permanent residency in Canada.
We have created a table below that lists all the Federal Express Entry rounds of invitations for permanent residency, to keep potential clients and the general public updated on the most recent draws at the federal level. You can sort the table by date, type of draw, number of invitations issued, and most importantly, the lowest CRS score at which the potential candidate received an invitation to apply.
The CRS score fluctuates over time and is different for each draw. For each express entry draw, the IRCC issues ministerial instructions that provide additional information about the criteria it uses to send out invitations.
