This marks a significant milestone for IRCC, representing the first time since December 2023 that three draws have been conducted within a single week. On February 16, 2024, Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) hosted its third Express Entry draw of the week, featuring pivotal developments in Canada’s immigration landscape:

150 Invitations to Apply (ITAs) were issued in a category-based draw targeting eligible candidates with valuable work experience in Agriculture/Agri-Food occupations. Achieving a minimum Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) score of 437 was essential for qualification.

Leading up to this, two draws were conducted earlier in the week, specifically:

On February 14, a Healthcare category-based draw took place, with applicants needing to meet a minimum CRS of 422.

February 13 saw an All-program draw, requiring candidates to attain a minimum CRS of 535 for consideration.

It’s noteworthy that IRCC’s focus in 2023 spanned across five pivotal categories:

  1. Healthcare

  2. Transport

  3. Agriculture and agri-food

  4. Science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) professions

  5. Trades, encompass roles like carpenters, plumbers, and contractors.

Furthermore, candidates boasting strong proficiency in the French language may have additional opportunities for selection.
