IRCC uncovers the number of FSWP and CEC candidates who were welcomed in recent all-program draws. Providing with a detailed distribution on Express Entry Draw July 2022 Results.

Canada’s federal immigration office has released preliminary information on the number of Federal Skilled Worker that Program (FSWP) and Canadian Experience Class (CEC) competitors were welcomed in the two latest Express Entry draws.

On July 6, Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) held its first all-program draw in 18 months. A sum of 1,500 competitors were welcomed to apply for Canadian migration and up-and-comers were expected to have a score of no less than 557, an extremely high score, to get a greeting.

IRCC media relations answered on July 27 and incorporated the breakdown for its July 20 Express Entry draw where 1,750 candidates were welcomed and the base score cut-off was 542.

There are various reasons why no Federal Skilled Trades Program (FSTP) applicants were pronounced. IRCC focuses on sending CEC solicitations to invitations to those who are qualified for more than one program. IRCC welcomes candidates to apply for the CEC when they are qualified for both the FSWP and the CEC, or on the other hand assuming they are qualified for each of the three projects including the FSTP. The reason is that CEC candidates do not need to have proof of funds in order to apply for immigration, whereas FSWP and FSTP candidates without a Canadian job offer do. So, it is more desirable for candidates who are eligible for both to apply through the CEC.

Assuming that FSTP applicants were qualified for different projects, IRCC would welcome them to apply for those projects first. Generally, their scores were not sufficiently high. IRCC sporadically holds draws explicitly for FSTP possibility to offer these talented specialists a chance to apply for the Canadian movement.

It makes sense that as additional Invitations to Apply (ITAs) are given, the Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) score necessity could go down. IRCC should keep welcoming up-and-comers from all projects to meet its 2023 migration focuses as per its current long-term movement levels plan. Around 80% of candidates who answer their solicitations in these new all-program attracts are supposed to get decisions in six months.
