Canada now operates 80 economic class immigration programs for 200,000 immigrants
Based on the trend of CRS score of Express entry draws held in 2019, a Comprehensive Ranking Score above 460 points must be minimally scored to obtain ITA (Invitation to apply) for Canada PR. In fact, in 2020, two draws have released so far in January with CRS score of 473 and 471 respectively. The reason for higher cut-off is an increase in numbers of applicants with work experience in Canada or provincial nomination.
Despite higher cut-off, immigration candidates are suggested to create an express entry profile even if they don’t qualify the current cut-off because of the following reasons
- Unpredictable CRS score
It is not possible to forecast CRS cut-off as there were many cases in the past in which CRS score got dropped significantly. For say, in the express entry draw held on January 30, 2019, the CRS score was 438 only. So, create an express entry profile for always have a chance of getting ITA by the Federal government.
- Provincial nomination boost up CRS score:
Each Provincial Nominee Program has a minimum of one express entry-linked immigration program and Express entry candidates get additional 600 points to their express entry scores after getting the nomination from any Canadian province and territory. It means if your score is not equal or higher than Federal CRS cut-off, then a provincial nomination can enhance your score for effectively guaranteeing an ITA through Express entry draw for Canada PR.
- CRS score can be improved:
CRS score can be improved even after the submission of express entry profile so, create the express entry and follow the below steps to improve the CRS score-

- Higher intake of immigrants through Express entry:
As compared to other Canada immigration options, Express entry is the fastest and easiest ways to migrate to Canada. Moreover, its admission target is higher, accounting 42 % of total admission through Canada economic category.
Why Canada has over 80 economic class pathways?
The Express Entry was introduced in 2015, and it has three immigration pathways like Federal skilled Worker Program, Federal Skilled Trades Class and Canada Experience Class.
Prior to the launch of the Provincial Nominee Program in 1999, the majority of Canada’s economic class immigrants were selected through the Federal Skilled Worker Class. However, smaller provinces had to struggle to attract skilled workers for their local market through federal programs. So, each Canadian province and territory except Quebec and Nunavut have begun to operate their Provincial Nominee Programs.
How the 80+ programs benefit prospective immigrants to Canada?
The provincial or territorial government in association with the federal government introduced dozens of additional economic class pathways to attract a large number of skilled and experienced immigrants from all over the world. A large number of choices for immigrants contribute to creating a bigger pool of candidates having a variety of skills to meet the shortage of labor and to enhance the growth of the economy of the country.
The general parameters included in the Canada immigration assessment for economic class categories are age, education, language proficiency and work experience.
Higher chances of getting PR in 2020:
Under the plan of immigration to Canada from 2019 to 2021, around 1 million new immigrants get permanent residence status in Canada by 2021. Moreover, the government is looking to have an influx of 110,000 economic class immigrants through its more than 80 immigration programs, along with an additional 86,000 through three categories of Express Entry program. So, interested candidates should apply for Canadian immigration in 2020.
