A Guide for the Express Entry Draws in July 2022
A Guide for the Express Entry Draws in July 2022
The Express Entry Draws were first introduced by the Government of Canada in 2015, and have since become the primary driver of skilled worker immigration to Canada and one of the most popular immigration systems worldwide.
During the COVID-19 Pandemic, Canada had paused the Express Entry Draws in an effort to combat the spread of the virus and limit international travel.
After two long years, Immigration Minister, Sean Fraser, announced that the Express Entry draw will resume in early July 2022.
Amidst all of the excitement pending their resumption, there are many factors to consider and many changes being made to the original system.
Although it is extremely difficult to forecast the Express Entry score cut-off in the coming months, there are numerous factors to consider.
Consider this your complete guide to the Express Entry Draws in July 2022, as we get you ready for the draw by answering some of the most common questions.
many candidates will be invited in each round?
The IRCC has stated that they intend to invite thousands of candidates per round, but the exact number will be crucial in determining the CRS score cut-off. We will know more information in the coming weeks ahead of the draw.
How many candidates will be entering/leaving the pool?
Express Entry is in high demand, with over 220,000 candidates currently in the pool. As the system was paused due to the pandemic, there has been a backlog of applicants.
Over the last two weeks, over 5,000 new candidates have joined the pool. If more candidates begin to enter the pool, the CRS score cut-off may remain higher.
Will IRCC continue conducting all-program draws over the months ahead?
It is possible that IRCC will alternate between draws that consider all candidates and those that only consider candidates in specific programs. More information on this is to come, and we will be sure to update all applicants as soon as it has been announced.
Will IRCC begin conducting occupation-specific draws?
The IRCC is considering a change that would allow Express Entry draws to prioritize candidates with experience in high-demand occupations. If this change is implemented, it has the potential to significantly alter the CRS score cut-off, establishing different cut-offs for different occupations.
