The latest Express Entry draw by Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) has seen 2,500 invitations issued to candidates under the Canadian Experience Class category. To qualify for this draw, candidates were required to have a minimum Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) score of 519 and had to create an Express Entry profile before the specified deadline. This draw signifies a significant opportunity for individuals seeking permanent residence in Canada.

Applicants residing in Canada under the Express Entry program may also be eligible for a Bridging Open Work Permit (BOWP) after submitting their application for permanent residence. Those facing work permit expiry while awaiting a BOWP decision can benefit from maintained status, allowing them to continue working under their existing permit conditions as long as they remain in Canada. Additionally, qualifying family members may have the opportunity to obtain open work permits.
