The Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) recently held its thirteenth Express Entry draw of 2023 on May 24. This draw saw a total of 4,800 candidates from the Express Entry pool being issued invitations to apply for Canada PR.
Notably, this was the first all-program draw since April 26, making candidates from from the Federal Skilled Worker Program (FSWP), Federal Skilled Trades Program (FSTP), Canadian Experience Class (CEC), and Provincial Nominee Program were eligible to receive an invitation to apply for Canada PR.
This invitation round follows the previous all-program draw on April 26, where 3,500 candidates received Invitations to Apply (ITAs) with a minimum CRS score of 483. It’s important to note that IRCC is currently issuing ITAs on a weekly basis, with occasional exceptions. The frequency, size, and date of the next Express Entry draw are determined based on the application inventory’s needs.
