Express Entry is a popular and highly competitive immigration system that manages the pool of candidates for these three programs. Candidates are ranked based on their Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) score, which takes into consideration factors such as age, education, language proficiency, and work experience. In each draw, the highest-ranking candidates are invited to apply for permanent residence in Canada.
This surprise all-program draw is good news for candidates who may have been waiting for an invitation to apply for permanent residence in Canada. It also reflects the Canadian government’s commitment to economic immigration and attracting skilled workers to contribute to the country’s economy.
