🇨🇦 Draw #302

In Draw #302, IRCC set the CRS cutoff at 420 and issued 3,200 Invitations to Apply (ITAs) on July 8, 2024. This means all candidates in the Express Entry pool with a CRS score of 420 or higher received an invitation to submit a permanent residence application.

This was a French-language proficiency draw, which targets candidates with strong French abilities. These draws typically have lower CRS cutoffs than general rounds, making French proficiency one of the most effective ways to receive an invitation.

This draw's cutoff was close to the category average of 424, reflecting a typical round for this draw type.

Candidates who received an ITA have 60 days to submit a complete permanent residence application. Those not invited remain in the pool for up to 12 months and will be considered in future draws.
