1. Latest Express Entry Draw Figures

Express Entry Terminology

CEC-specific draw

A draw that slants in favour of those with Canadian work experience (CEC). These people need to have worked in a professional capacity for at least a year in Canada.

PNP-specific draw

A draw where the winners are those who have received regional votes. These individuals may be nominated by a province, but they may also be eligible under one of the other two Express Entry Canada schemes. This typically indicates that they have some sort of connection to a specific region or location, be it through employment, school, or family.

FSWP-specific draw

A darw that benefits applicants to the Federal Specialized Labor Program (FSWP). Candidates with NOC A, 0 or B job experience who are applying from outside of Canada usually come from countries with a higher concentration of migrant trained workers.

FSTP-specific draw

Favorable odds for participants in the Government Specialized Trades Program to select a job (FSTP). This category of applicants usually resides outside of Canada and has prior job experience in NOC B relevant to their foreign-trained specialisation.

Can you explain the Canadian Expedited Entry tie-breaker criteria? In the event that multiple applicants obtain the required CRS score, the tie-breaking criterion will be used to limit the total number of invitations to apply for PR in Canada for that draw. An ITA will be given only to those who meet or exceed the CRS minimum score requirements AND who submit their profiles before the IRCC deadline for separating ties. In November of 2017, the regulation to break ties was implemented.

Example:

On January 1, 2021, Pravesh submitted his Express Entry resume and was given a score of 444. On January 20, 2021, Karen submitted her resume to the Canada Express Entry System and was given a score of 444. People with a score of 444 or higher were invited to apply for permanent residency in Canada on January 24, 2021. The date of January 17, 2020 was used to break any ties. As a result, Pravesh will be given an Offer to Submit, while Karen will not.

2. How to Increase Your CRS Score

There’s no need to panic; there are steps you can take to improve your Express Entry profile and raise your odds of being selected for an Invitation to Apply (ITA) in the next draw. Here are five guidelines to help you create a successful Express Entry application for Canada.

 

  1. Improve Your English or French Language Abilities

A high CRS score can be achieved in a number of ways, but RCIC David Allon claims that enhancing one’s linguistic skills is among the simplest and most fruitful. Candidates who joined the group with IELTS scores equal to CLB 8 or below can, for instance, work to better their language skills and retake the test. Their CRS score can benefit greatly from this.

Plus, if you take the CRS in both English and French, you could get 24 bonus points for being bilingual (maximum).

If you’re applying as a single person, getting the highest number of points for language skills can boost your CRS score by 160 points; if you’re applying as a couple, it can boost your score by 150 points.

Because of the interconnected nature of the requirements, increasing your language skills will also raise the points you earn for job experience and schooling acquired outside of Canada. These permutations may earn you up to 100 CRS points!

  1. Upgrade Your Level of Education

Having a CLB 9 or better in all four language skills, as well as post-secondary qualifications, will improve your odds of getting an ITA in the next Canada Express Entry draw. Candidates with a BA who have a CLB of 7 or 8 in all four language skills will receive 13 points, and those with a BA and a CLB of 9 or 10 in all four language skills will receive 25 points.

  1. Gain More Work Experience

What is your total number of years in the workforce? If you have excellent language skills (CLB 9 or higher) and have worked abroad for at least three years, your CRS score can be raised by 50 points. Plus, if you’ve done any or all of your previous job experience in Canada, that’s a plus.

  1. Secure a Job in Canada

A legitimate work contract is worth 50 points for positions in NOC 0, A, or B, and a massive 200 points for jobs in NOC 00, so even though it is not required for Express Entry immigration to Canada, it can earn you an ITA.

  1. Achieve a Provincial Nomination

And finally, the best there is is to be nominated for a regional position. The increase of 600 CRS points to your profile almost ensures that you will receive an ITA in the next Express Entry draw. If your Express Entry description is in line with the labour market requirements of a Canadian province or territory, that province or territory may nominate you for permanent residence. If you accept a candidature and later obtain permanent residency from IRCC, you will be required to live in the province or region that made the submission.

3. Frequently Asked Questions About Express Entry Draws

    1. When will Express Entry draws get back to normal?

    In 2021, only applicants who have been recommended by the province administrations of Canada will be eligible for Express Entry draw. The main reason for this is that prior to the outbreak of COVID-19, COPR-holders were not permitted entry into Canada. Most people running for CEC positions and province nominations are already transient citizens of Canada.

    There was an announcement on June 21 stating that visitors to Canada must have perpetual residency approval. Does that imply we get a fresh start on all of the draws in the programmes? Despite the lack of a specific date, this is excellent news for people who have applied for the Federal Specialized Worker programme.

    1. How long do you have to submit a complete Canada Express Entry profile?

    If you don’t submit your Express Entry resume within 60 days, you’ll have to start from scratch.

    1. What documents do I need for my Canada Express Entry profile?

    If you took an exam to determine your level of competence in English or French, you’ll need to submit those findings so that we can properly assess your language skills. It’s important to know your NOC employment title and number for the purpose of establishing credibility in your professional portfolio. 

    1. How frequent are Express Entry Application draws?

    Each Expedited Entry draw occurs roughly every two weeks. The CRS cut-off number for each draw is determined by the lowest-ranked applicant who received an Invitation to Apply (ITA). You have 60 days from the time you obtain your ITA to file your permanent residence application electronically (eAPR).

    1. What is the most ITAs ever issued in one draw?

    On February 13, 2021, Canada conducted a record-breaking Express Entry draw, inviting 27,332 applicants from the Canadian Experience Class (CEC) to apply for permanent residence. The minimum Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) number required to participate in the draw was 75.
