Before this, on July 31 there were 319 NOIs sent to express entry candidates with a CRS score of 400 and above. This time, however, the CRS score required is 352 from the applicants.
The express entry applicants who meet the stream eligibility are invited to apply for the Alberta Provincial Nominee Program. The Alberta Province has had 27 draws very quickly, and 5382 NOIs have been issued to settle in the province so far. The cities like Calgary and Edmonton are among the most popular places of settling. The good part of the Provincial Nomination is that there is no need for a job offer for relocation.
Further, another feather in the cap is that the provincial nomination’s draw score requirement is low than the Express Entry CRS cut off. The CRS score requirement on July 10 was 425 points, which was the highest CRS Score requirement so far and It was very less than the 10 July Express Entry Draw cut off of 466 Points.
