82,100 Lives Changed So Far in 2019! Express Entry Draw News
February 9, 2021
|
The 132nd Express Entry Draw for 2019 took place on December 11th. The Canadian Government issued 3,200 candidates invitations to apply (ITA) for permanent residency in Canada. This puts the total number of ITA issued for the year at 82,100 so far! The minimum Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) Score for the draw was 472 – a one-point increase since the previous draw on November 27. The tie-breaking rule was applied in the latest Express Entry draw. That means not all candidates with 472 points will receive an ITA, instead, candidates who applied before December 6, 2019, at 03:03:49 UTC will be prioritized. As another victorious year for Canadian immigration nears its end, we are happy to see that Canada is going full steam ahead with its historic three-year plan to welcome more than 1 million new immigrants between 2019 and 2021.
