On March 30, Canada invited 919 Express Entry applicants to apply for permanent residency.
In the current invitation round, Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) solely invited individuals from the Provincial Nominee Program (PNP). Candidates needed a Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) of at least 785 to be invited. Because PNP candidates got an automatic 600 point boost when they obtain their nomination, the minimum score was relatively high. The lowest-scoring candidates would have received 185 base points if they had not been nominated.
Candidates who have been invited to apply for permanent residence in Canada now have 60 days to do so.
IRCC invited a total of 924 PNP individuals to apply for Canadian immigration in the previous round of invitations.
