The Government of Canada issued 4,200 invitations to apply for Canadian Permanent Residence to Express Entry candidates in a draw held on September 16.

The new Express Entry round issued invitations to candidates with Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) scores of 472. This is three points less than the previous all-program draw, the biggest drop since all-program draws resumed in July.

A total of 4,200 Invitations to Apply (ITAs) for Canadian permanent residence were issued this draw, which is the second all-program draw Canada has held in two weeks. This pattern is more congruent with pre-coronavirus invitation rounds where all-program draws were held every two weeks.

This draw matches the 4,200 ITAs issued in an Express Entry round on September 2, which ties it for the second-biggest draw ever. The biggest draw issued 4,500 ITAs on February 19. The large number of invitations being issued by Canada is a  strong indication that it remains committed to welcoming high levels of immigrants in 2021 and beyond.

Express Entry is the application system that manages the pool of candidates for Canada’s three main economic immigration classes — the Federal Skilled Worker Program (FSWP), the Federal Skilled Trades Program (FSTP)  and the Canadian Experience Class (CEC).

The highest-ranked candidates in the Express Entry pool are issued ITAs in regular invitation rounds.
