A total of 6,000 candidates were invited to apply for permanent residence through the Canadian Experience Class (CEC). The Comprehensive Ranking System score requirement (CRS) was 357.

 Mexly Visas | Express Entry: PNP candidates invited with CRS 760 Canada invited 627 PNP candidates in its newest Express Entry draw. Canada invited 627 Express Entry candidates to apply for permanent residence on July 7. The invitation round was only for candidates who had a nomination from a Provincial Nominee Program (PNP). These candidates needed a score of at least 760. The cutoff score is relatively high because PNP candidates automatically get 600 points added to their score. Without this award, the lowest-scoring candidate would have 160 points. Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) also published a cutoff time for the tie-break rule. This is an administrative requirement, and it does not mean there was any actual tie. Candidates who had the minimum score were only invited if they submitted their Express Entry profile before  June 14, 2021 at 07:44:05 UTC. Higher numbers of PNP candidates in recent draws Throughout the pandemic, IRCC has been holding only PNP- and
