Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) conducted the first Express Entry draw of the week for French-speaking skilled workers, in which it invited 3,200 applicants to apply for permanent residence. The CRS considered in the Express Entry draw #302 was 420. The Express Entry draw #302 was held on 08 July 2024.
The CRS has finally dropped a little after a few high-CRS requiring rounds and it seems that applicants can now breathe a sigh of relief. Moreover, this was an unpredictable draw as the previous Express Entry draw #301 was conducted just on 05 July.
Based on these, we may predict the next draw to be conducted on 10th July, with a CRS score ranging from 440 to 500.
