Canada conducts its first CEC draw of the year

IRCC has invited 1,350 candidates from the Canadian Experience Class (CEC) to apply for permanent residence, requiring a minimum CRS score of 542. 

This is the second draw of the week, following a PNP draw on January 7. Recent trends show fewer ITAs issued in December compared to previous months.

 IRCC’s new Immigration Levels Plan prioritizes candidates already in Canada, focusing on those with healthcare, trades, or French-language skills.
