Express Entry Draw in 2024
Details of the Draw
In the latest Express Entry draw, which took place recently, a whopping 1,800 candidates who had demonstrated their proficiency in the French language were issued Invitations to Apply (ITAs). This figure is nothing short of impressive and reflects Canada's commitment to boosting its Francophone communities through immigration. What's even more exciting is the fact that the minimum Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) score required to receive an invitation was just 400, which is one of the lowest scores we have seen this year. This draw presents a significant opportunity for candidates who don't meet the higher CRS requirements, as they now have a greater chance of being invited to apply for Canadian permanent residence. With such a generous invitation quota, it's safe to say that this draw has been a game-changer for many aspiring immigrants. So, if you haven't already, it's time to seriously consider adding French language proficiency to your skillset and join the thousands of successful candidates who are making their dreams of Canadian permanent residence a reality.
