On October 25, 2023, the latest Express Entry Draw sent out 1,548 invitations to apply for permanent residency (PR) in a 'PNP only' round of invites.

In this 'PNP'-only draw, the lowest-ranked candidate's Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) cutoff score was 776.

Since May 2023, IRCC has conducted this PNP-only Express Entry draw, and in comparison, the CRS cutoff score has increased by 85 points.

This week, new Express Entry draws are anticipated to be announced by IRCC, and we may expect to see a recurrence of the STEM and healthcare invitation rounds.

Instead, the first CEC-only draw since September 2021 could be a surprise from IRCC. For the most recent information and details on Express Entry drawings, come back later.

On August 24, 2023, the latest MPNP (Manitoba Provincial Nominee Program) draw called 623 applicants for permanent residency (PR) under all PNP categories.

In this MPNP draw, 178 invited candidates had a valid Express Entry profile as well as a job seeker validation code.
