Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) recently conducted the Express Entry draw aimed at Provincial Nominee Program (PNP) candidates.

On October 24th, 2023, IRCC invited 1,548 candidates in a draw for PNP candidates. This time, candidates required a minimum Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) score of 776. The CRS score is usually higher for PNP draws as the nomination grants an additional 600 points to the applicant’s CRS score.

This latest draw follows the October 10th results in which 3,725 candidates received Invitations to Apply in an all-program draw, with a minimum CRS score of 500.

Canada has now conducted five PNP draws this year so far.
