Canada invites 3,750 candidates in the most recent Express Entry draw

On September 28, 2022, Canada hosted its most recent all-program Express Entry draw. Since they started up again on July 6, this was the seventh all-program draw.

3,750 applicants with a minimum Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) score of 504 received invites from IRCC. Invitations were sent to qualified applicants from the Canadian Experience Class (CEC), Federal Skilled Worker Program (FSWP), and Federal Skilled Trades Program (FSTP), all programmes that use the Express Entry system, as this was an all-program draw.

Due to a backlog of applications brought on by COVID-19-related travel limitations, all Express Entry programme draws were put on hold for more than 18 months beginning in December 2020. Only applicants from the CEC or Provincial Nominee Program (PNP) received invitations to apply throughout the hiatus. The IRCC also stopped holding lotteries for the CEC in September 2021.
