Dear future neighbour,

On September 19, 2024, the Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) held its first Express Entry draw of the year specifically targeting candidates from the Canadian Experience Class (CEC). In this draw, a total of 4,000 invitations to apply (ITAs) for permanent residency were issued, marking a significant step for many international graduates and skilled workers in Canada.

Targeting Canadian Experience Class Candidates

This draw was notable for its exclusive focus on the CEC, a program designed for individuals who have gained work experience in Canada. The CEC is particularly attractive to international students and temporary foreign workers, as it recognizes their contributions to the Canadian labor market and offers a pathway to permanent residency.

To qualify, candidates needed a comprehensive ranking system (CRS) score of 509 or higher. The CRS is a points-based system used to assess and score profiles in the Express Entry pool, considering factors such as age, education, work experience, and language proficiency. A score of 509 indicates a competitive standing in the pool, and receiving an ITA is a significant achievement for these candidates.

See below the details of Express Entry draw of September 19

  • Program: Canadian Experience Class
  • Number of invitations issued: 4,000
  • Rank required to be invited to apply: 4,000 or above
  • Date of round: September 19, 2024
  • CRS score of lowest-ranked candidate invited: 509
  • Tie-breaking rule: November 06, 2023

0-300 5,457
Total 207,762

Pathway to Permanent Residency

For those who received an ITA in this draw, the next step is to submit a complete application for permanent residency. The process typically involves providing documentation to prove work experience, language proficiency, and other relevant qualifications. Successful applicants will gain access to a range of benefits, including the ability to live and work anywhere in Canada and access to healthcare and social services.

As the country continues to seek skilled workers to support its economy, the CEC remains a vital program for those looking to build a future in Canada.

Dear future neighbour,

On September 5, 2024, Ontario’s Immigrant Nominee Program (OINP) held a draw under the French-Speaking Skilled Worker stream, inviting 86 candidates to apply for provincial nomination.

The draw targeted applicants in the pool between September 5, 2023 and September 5, 2024 with Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) scores between 290 and 393.

Eligible candidates had work experience in occupations under the Training, Education, Experience, and Responsibilities (TEER) categories 0, 1, 2, or 3.

This stream, aimed at strengthening Ontario’s francophone communities, provides a valuable pathway to permanent residency, especially for French-speaking individuals with lower CRS scores.

To qualify for the Ontario Immigrant Nominee Program (OINP) French-Speaking Skilled Worker stream, candidates must meet the following criteria:

1. Language Proficiency: They must demonstrate a minimum Canadian Language Benchmark (CLB) level of 7 in French and at least CLB 6 in English.

2. Express Entry Profile: Candidates must have an active profile in the federal Express Entry system under either the Federal Skilled Worker Program or the Canadian Experience Class.

3. Education: A Canadian bachelor’s degree, or its equivalent from a foreign institution, is required.

4. Work Experience: They must have at least one year of continuous, full-time paid work experience (or equivalent part-time experience) in a skilled occupation under the National Occupational Classification (NOC) TEER categories 0, 1, 2, or 3.

5. Intent to Reside in Ontario: Candidates must show an intention to live and work in Ontario.

6. Sufficient Funds: They must demonstrate sufficient settlement funds to support themselves and their family.

These requirements help ensure that selected candidates can integrate into Ontario’s labor market and contribute to the province’s economy.

See below summary of OINP Express Entry draws in 2024

By September 2024, the Ontario Immigrant Nominee Program (OINP) has extended a total of 19,019 invitations through its various Express Entry streams.
