Confused As To Why The Next Express Entry Draw Taking A Long Time? Find Some Key Facts
The last or draw of Federal Express
Entry system launched on 12 July 2017 and since then it has been a long wait
for the applicants. Usually, the Immigration Refugees and Citizenship Canada
(IRCC) launch the express entry draws fortnightly (every 15 days) basis.
However, for the last two draws, the trend has not been followed by IRCC and
draws, in fact, were launched very late.
Earlier the
EE draw trends used to break in terms of pre-launch of the draw, however, now
it’s otherwise. It has been a matter of surprise for many applicants,
especially after the incredible performance by Express Entry in the first half
of the year.
Key Reasons for the Slowed Pace
of Express Entry Draws
There are multiple factors behind the
slow pace of Express Entry draws.
Annual Immigration Target Factor
Firstly, Canada has an immigration
target of 71,700 invitations for Skilled Workers as per their Annual
immigration plan 2017. This number includes candidates to be invited from all
the below three categories of Express Entry System, i.e.
Federal Skilled Worker Class (FSW)
Federal Skilled Trades Class (FST)
Canadian Experience Class (CEC)
However,
until July 12, 2017, close to 55,000 candidates have already been invited for
Canadian Permanent Residency (PR) by IRCC, courtesy massive draws of express entry
this year, IRCC has followed a pattern of about 3,000 invitations per express
entry draw this year.
Now, as per the express entry draw
frequency (fortnightly draws), close to 11 EE draws are remaining this year.
Hence, it is explicable as to why the pace or frequency of express entry draws
has been slowed by the Immigration Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC)- the
federal immigration department of Canada.
Provincial Nominee Program Factor
Meanwhile,
Provincial Nominee Programs (PNPs) are doing a good job in terms of inviting
and selecting the fair amount of candidates for provincial nomination, so that
they can subsequently get the PR in Canada. So, when the express entry draws go
slow, PNPs of Canada took the charge and issue invitations to the significant
number of candidates.
