The Express Entry Selected 671 applicants in the recent draw on March 8. The CRS score limit was set at 739.
The Immigration, Refugee and Citizenship Canada (IRCC), on March 8, 2021, Announced the latest Express Entry draw in which 671 applicants got selected from the provincial nomination category. The minimum Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) score of selection was set at 739. It means that all the applicants who were from the PNP specific category and had a score of 739 were selected for immigration. The score requirement seemed high as per the earlier draws, but since all the applicants selected already had provincial nominations, thereby additional 600 bonus points in addition to the original human capital score, getting a score of 730 didn’t seem difficult. It means the original score should have been 139 without the bonus points.
