Express Entry Draw - September 24, 2018

Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada issued 400 invitations to apply (ITAs) for Canadian permanent residence under the Federal Skilled Trades Program via the Express Entry System today. The lowest score to receive an ITA today was 284. This draw illustrates the need for program-specific draws for candidates who meet the eligibility criteria for Canadian permanent residence under the Federal Skilled Trades Program as they wouldn't have a point score necessary to receive an ITA otherwise. Where no program is specified for an Express Entry Draw, a candidate needs a point score of at least 440 to be competitive in the Express Entry Pool.
