October 14 - EXPRESS ENTRY DRAW INVITES 4,500 CANDIDATES TO APPLY FOR PR

Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) invited 4,500 candidates in the Express Entry pool on October 14 to apply for permanent residence. Federal Skilled Workers Program, CEC and Federal Skilled Trades Program candidates are now eligible to receive invitation to apply for permanent residence.

The minimum Comprehensive Ranking Score (CRS) score was 471, which was the same as the draw on September 30.

This draw brings the total number of ITAs issued in 2020 to 82,850.

Candidates in the Express Entry pool are ranked using a points-based system called the Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS). The highest-ranking candidates from the pool are selected and invited to apply for permanent residence. To be eligible to be invited to make an application, candidates must be ranked among the first 4,500 eligible candidates in the general ranking.

This is the fourth consecutive all program draw which denotes that IRCC is slowly getting back to pre-covid-19 draws.
