              FREEEVALUATION
              Wednesday, 24 July 2019 / Published in Canada Immigration News Articles, Express Entry

              Canada Invites 3,600 Immigration Candidates in Largest Express Entry Draw Since January

              Canada Invites 385 PNP Immigration Candidates In New Express Entry Draw

              Last Updated on July 24, 2019

              Jul 24, 2019 – Invitations to Apply were issued to 3,600 candidates in the second Express Entry draw of July 2019  even as the minimum Comprehensive Ranking System score of 459, maintained its continued downward trajectory.

              Since hitting 2019-high of 470 points on May 29, the CRS score has dropped by 11 points over four consecutive draws. The score in the latest draw is one point lower than July 10 draw.

              Canada has now issued 49,000 ITAs in 2019, against a high-skilled immigration target of 81,400.

              IRCC broke the record for annual Express Entry ITAs in 2018 with 89,800.

              The draw saw the tie-breaking rule implemented on May 25, 2019 at 10.40 pm EST. If more than one candidate had the lowest score, the cut-off is based on the date and time they submitted their Express Entry profiles.

              This was the 15th round of invitations under Express Entry in 2019 and 122nd overall.

              Candidates from the Federal Skilled Trades Program, were eligible for this round of invitations


              ITAs Issued as of Second July Draw

              Note: There were no July draws in 2017


              What is Express Entry?

              Express Entry is an immigration system implemented by Canadian immigration authorities (IRCC) on January 1, 2015 which manages skilled worker applications under Federal Economic programs. This includes the Federal Skilled Worker Program, the Federal Skilled Trades Program the Canada Experience Class and parts of the Provincial Nomination Programs.

              Stakeholders expect to see near 30 draws and more than 80,000 invitations issued in 2019, with a majority of draws featuring CRS scores below 460 to enable Canadian immigration authorities to meet targeted annual immigration levels for 2019.

              What Can Employers Do to Recruit Foreign Workers?

              Employers are encouraged to consider securing an LMIA or nomination under provincial nomination programs (PNPs) to ensure long term retention of employees.

              At immigration.ca we provide Canadian employers with unparalleled immigration legal services and recruitment of foreign nationals through our in-house Global Recruiters of Montreal, GRNMontreal.com and skilledworker.com. We bring qualified candidates to Canada in the shortest time possible. Employers in a wide range of industries can directly benefit from our unique position as one of Canada’s leading immigration firms in the industry, with a strong on-line presence, to meet both their recruitment and immigration requirements.

              Interested employers wishing to seek our assistance are invited to contact us here for further information.


              ITAs Issued Per Draw In 2019


              What Should Candidates Do Next?

              It is expected that the majority of applicants to be issued ITAs in 2019 will require a CRS score well under 460 points, enabling a significant number of applicants to receive permanent admission to Canada without a job offer or nomination under a provincial immigration program. However, securing an approved offer of employment is highly recommended. Watch our Facebook livestream video on how to find jobs in Canada from overseas.

              We offer all our individual clients with excellent employment services as well as a 60-minute Live, Face-to-Face LinkedIn tutorial on how to find jobs in all areas of Canada.
