Canadian Experience Class Express Entry Draws Continue: Scores Drop to 510

Immigration Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) recently issued two new rounds of invitations to apply to Express Entry.

On July 30, 2024, IRCC issued a round of invitations to candidates who qualify for selection under the Provincial Nominee Class. The minimum score selected was 686, and 964 candidates were invited to apply. To qualify for selection under the Provincial Nominee Class, candidates must have received a nomination certificate from a Canadian province or territory.

On July 31, 2024, IRCC issued a round of invitations to candidates to qualify for selection under the Canadian Experience Class (CEC). To qualify for selection under the Canadian Experience Class, candidates must have completed a minimum of 12 months of skilled work experience in Canada within the past three years. The minimum score selected was 510 points, and 5,000 candidates were invited to apply.

The resumption of draws specific to Canadian Experience Class candidates is a positive development for applicants in Canada who have been struggling to be selected under the higher all-program draws.
