First and foremost, my prediction about the Canada Immigration draws for November was wrong. There is an increase in the Cumulative Ranking Scores (CRS) cutoff used in issuing Invitations to Apply (ITAs) for Canada Permanent Residence. Even though, the 2021-2023 Level Plan informs that there would be an increase in amounts of invitations and permanent residents in Canada, it shows from today’s draw that they did not see the need to reduce the amount of scores maybe due to the high amounts of applicants or even perhaps the delayed draw of last 2 weeks as Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) are known to hold Express Entry draws every two weeks but delayed the last one due to update of 2021-2013 Level Plan on all the affected profiles in the Express Entry pool…

What is an ITA?
An invitation to apply is a document issued by Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) to candidates in the Express Entry pool. With an Invitation to Apply, also known as an ITA, a candidate may apply for Canadian permanent residence. Invited candidates may immigrate to Canada with their accompanying family members, if applicable. This may include a spouse or common-law partner, as well as any dependent children. All accompanying family members must have been included on a candidate’s initial Express Entry profile.Once in the pool, candidates are eligible to be issued an Invitation to Apply (ITA) for the program(s) whose requirements they appear to meet based on the self-declared information in their profile. The ITA is issued to candidates who rank the highest in a round of invitations, based on their score in the Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS). Candidates with a provincial or territorial nomination certificate are awarded an additional 600 points in the CRS and are normally invited to apply at the next round of invitations to which they are eligible.
Today’s ITA Draw
Canada held its latest Express Entry draw today the 5th of November 2020. From the draw, it was eminent that a total of 4,500 invitations went to Express Entry candidates with a minimum Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) score requirement of 478 which is far above the past CRS score of 471 from the previous draw on the 14th of October 2020 which has a lower score of 7 points. In other words, this month’s draw increased by seven (7) whole points.Evidently, the new draw brings the total number of ITAs issued in 2020 to 87,350. Yet, the number has not reached a 100,000 applicants, which is to say, that there are still much opportunities for those who get or are already in the pool and increase their scores to 478 and above. This year’s ITA draw happens to be the highest IRCC has ever issued even though it increased the CRS cutoff. Of course, it was mandatory to increase the scores, unless the applicants may be more than 100,000 mark that is already predicted will come into Canada through Express Entry programs in the Federal High-Skilled Category following the Multi-Year Immigration Levels Plan.Other CRS scores
The Express Entry encompasses three of Canada’s largest immigration programs: Federal Skilled Worker (FSW), Canadian Experience Class (CEC), and Federal Skilled Trades (FST). Candidates in these programs, as well as some Provincial Nominee Programs (PNPs) are given a score based on the CRS. Candidates are ranked against one another based on their age, education, language proficiency in English and/or French, work experience, and other factors.The Federal Skilled Trades Program only draw on August 6 which invited trades workers with a CRS of 415, and previous Canadian Experience Class only draws dipped into the 440s. PNP-only draws have higher requirements because Express Entry candidates who receive a provincial nomination are automatically awarded an additional 600 CRS points. PNPs offer alternative pathways to permanent residence for Express Entry candiates who have a lower CRS score.Did You Know?
Starting from this ITA draw, French-speaking candidates are eligible for more CRS points. This as a result of the recent announcement made by the IRCC that French-speaking candidates now get 25 additional points for their language skills, up from 15, and bilingual candidates will now get 50 points, up from 30.There is surely no better time for you to learn French than now.
