This latest draw marks the first of November and is the first since IRCC announced its Immigration Levels Plan for the next three years. It is also the largest PNP-specific Express Entry draw since April 14, when 825 invitations were issued.

A Strong Start to November Draws

The November 11 draw comes right after three category-based rounds held in late October a French language proficiency draw on October 29, a Canadian Experience Class (CEC) draw on October 28, and another PNP draw on October 27.

With this latest round, IRCC has now invited 81,223 candidates through the Express Entry system so far this year, a strong indication that Canada continues to prioritize skilled workers who can contribute to its economy.

Express Entry Trends So Far This Year

IRCC has been focusing heavily on PNP draws, while continuing to invite candidates under other important categories such as CEC, French-language proficiency, and priority occupations like healthcare, trades, and education.

Here’s a quick look at the number of draws held this year:
