On May 31, 2024, Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) conducted a significant Express Entry draw specifically for Canadian Experience Class (CEC) candidates, marking the first CEC-targeted draw since September 14, 2021. During this draw, IRCC issued a substantial 3,000 Invitations to Apply (ITA) to eligible candidates. This draw, known as round #297, set a cut-off score of 522 points. The tie-breaking rule for this round was established on March 19, 2024, at 18:58:58 UTC.

As of May 29, 2024, there were 224,404 profiles registered in the Express Entry pool, reflecting the high level of interest and competition among prospective immigrants. To date, Canada has issued a total of 41,955 invitations through various Express Entry draws in 2024.

This recent draw underscores Canada's ongoing commitment to attracting skilled immigrants who can contribute to the country's economy and cultural diversity. The Canadian Experience Class is particularly significant as it targets individuals who have already gained valuable work experience in Canada, making them ideal candidates for permanent residency.
