Canada’s Express Entry draws were paused in December 2020 and continued for 18 months.
On July 06, 2022, the all-program draws were resumed which has allowed Immigration Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) to work towards its pre-pandemic targets of Express Entry invitations.
Although candidates were disappointed to see the CRS score 557 on the very first all-program draw (July 6), the scores dropped every draw from July onward.
The latest Express Entry draw took place on November 23, 2022, and the CRS cut-off score decreased to 491.
If draws had been allowed to continue in December 2022, the CRS score would surely have dropped even further. However, Express Entry candidates should be aware that the current suspension of draws is likely to mean a slightly higher minimum CRS score for the next all-program draw.
Let’s take a look at the Express Entry all-program draws in 2022.
