March 18, 2021 Express Entry Draw Results: 449 Points

Earlier today, Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) held an Express Entry draw for the Canadian Experience Class (CEC). In today’s draw, 5,000 applicants with a minimum Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) score of 449 received an Invitation to Apply (ITA).

This is the first CEC draw held by IRCC since the February 13 draw which invited all the candidates in the CEC pool. It may be a sign that IRCC is returning to regularly inviting 5,000 CEC applicants at a time with a more competitive score during each round. Nevertheless, we encourage anyone who qualifies for the CEC stream to create an Express Entry profile, as trends are hard to predict during COVID-19.
