Canadian Experience Class (CEC) draw after Sep 21 invited 3000 PR.

Breaking News: CEC Draw 297 Invites 3,000 Candidates with a CRS Score of 522

A new Express Entry draw was held in Canada, and 3,000 Invitations to Apply (ITAs) for the Canadian Experience Class (CEC) were distributed. After a month without any drawings, this was the second consecutive EE Draw.

The CEC draw on September 14, 2021, had a minimum Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) score of 462 points and awarded 2,000 ITAs. In contrast, the draw on May 31 saw a minimum CRS score of 522 points, which was 60 points higher.

The last draw, which took place on May 30 a day earlier, was for the Provincial Nominee Program. 2,985 ITAs with a 676 minimum CRS have been issued by it.

The chance of a decrease in the cutoff score is depending upon how frequently and how much of these rounds of invites, as the IRCC has now resumed CEC drawings.

What is the Canadian Experience Class (CEC) Draw?

The Canadian Experience Class (CEC) draw is a category within the Express Entry system, designed to invite skilled workers who have Canadian work experience to apply for permanent residency (PR).
