IRCC welcomes 6,300 people in the Canadian Experience Class for the Express Entry Draw.

Minimum CRS criteria record for the current year that is applicable for a class of selection by the IRCC draw was the lowest since the initiation of the year and is also less than the previous CEC–only draw on May 31 (522).

This month, IRCC has been able to grant  17,361 ITAs through six different draw events.

Moreover, IRCC chose 1,391 candidates in a Provincial Nominee Program (PNP)-only draw in the name of setting the minimum CRS at 670. In addition to that, IRCC has most recently attracted 3,200 candidates in the category-based selected draw for French proficiency on July 8

.

CRS scores for PNP-only Express Entry draws are generally higher than average because Express Entry candidates who have been successfully nominated for PNP automatically get 600 CRS points in addition to their existing score. For instance, a candidate in Express Entry who scored 300 that is successfully nominated, his/her final CRS will become 900.

candidates, regardless of whether or not they have received Express Entry nominations. Theoretically, as an example, an Express Entry candidate receiving a successful nomination will score a total of 900.
