The Government of Canada has invited 2,750 candidates to apply for permanent residence in a new Express Entry draw that took place on Dec. 20, 2017. The cut-off Comprehensive Ranking System score for this draw was 446.
Today’s cut-off score was down six points over the previous draw, which took place on Dec. 6 and had a cut-off score of 452.
As with the previous draw, Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) employed the tie-break rule. While some candidates with a score of 446 received Invitations To Apply (ITAs), the tie-break means that only those candidates with a CRS score of 446 who entered their profiles in the Express Entry pool prior to a date and time determined by IRCC received an ITA. In this case, that time and date was Oct. 2, 2017 at 14:56:53 UTC.
