Canada Immigration Express Entry

Express Entry applicants receive an invitation to apply (ITA) based on their score under the Comprehensive Ranking System (“CRS”).

As of September 6, 2017, IRCC had issued a total of 71 rounds of ITAs under Express Entry.  A summary of these rounds appears below:
  • In Round #1 (January 31, 2015), IRCC issued 779 ITAs.  Applicants in this round were required to receive at least 886 CRS points.
  • In Round #2 (February 7, 2015), IRCC issued 779 ITAs.  Applicants in this round were required to receive at least 818 CRS points.
  • In Round #70 (August 23, 2017), IRCC issued 3,035 ITAs.  Applicants in this round were required to receive at least 434 CRS points.
  • In Round #71 (September 6, 2017), IRCC issued 2.772 ITAs.  Applicants in this round were required to receive at least 435 CRS points.

The CRS score during Round #65 was 413, the lowest level since Express Entry first began on January 1, 2015.  The model is affordable for many average applicants.
