Good News for the people who want to migrate to Canada and settle permanently.
The Immigration, Refugee and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) has opened the largest Express entry draw invited 27, 332 Candidates from the Canadian Express Entry Class (CEC).
Another significant surprise is that IRCC decided to invite applicants with the lowest Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) score as low as 75.
This implies they welcomed pretty much every Express Entry applicant that met the qualification measures of the Canadian Experience Class (CEC) program.
