It is the highest CRS score requirement in CEC for a draw this year, 2024.
Candidates who received ITAs must have a minimum Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) score of 547 to be eligible. The CRS score is calculated based on factors such as age, education, work experience, and language proficiency.
Canada’s recent move to give fewer invitations with a high CRS score might be a sign that they’re changing their approach as part of their new immigration plans for 2025–2027. This plan focuses on helping people who already live and work in Canada to become permanent residents, making programs like the Canadian Experience Class (CEC) more important.
Even though this draw was less invitations than expected, those trying to apply for a CEC should remain positive. Canada has become more eager to make it easier for workers already adding to the country’s economy to stay long-term.
