Express Entry Draw- Feb 21, 2018: 442 CRS score, 3,000 ITAs


On February 21, 2018, the IRCC invited 3,000 candidates to apply for permanent residence who were in the Express Entry pool and had a CRS score of 442+. Our firm expects more candidates to be selected in the coming draws which will result in lower CRS scores, possibly in the 420 - 430 range. Last year saw a new CRS low of 413.

In 2018, 85,000 people are expected to be selected in Express Entry system, under the Federal Skilled Worker program.

With the start of a new year, it is the ideal time to begin the immigration process if you are considering a move to Canada.

The ideal candidate under Express Entry has a score of 415+. To calculate your Express Entry score, use our Express Entry CRS Calculator.
