🇨🇦 Draw #327

In Draw #327, IRCC set the CRS cutoff at 463 and issued 3,000 Invitations to Apply (ITAs) on November 20, 2024. This means all candidates in the Express Entry pool with a CRS score of 463 or higher received an invitation to submit a permanent residence application.

This was a Healthcare category draw, part of IRCC's category-based selection system. Healthcare draws target nurses, dentists, pharmacists, psychologists, and other medical professionals to address Canada's healthcare worker shortage.

This draw's cutoff was 13 points above the category average of 450, indicating a more competitive round. Candidates with scores near the cutoff should consider strategies to increase their CRS, such as improving language test scores or gaining additional work experience.

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.
