Draw for FSW category

 

After the nine program-specific draws this year, the Federal Skilled Worker (FSW) category candidates must be waiting eagerly for an all-program Express Entry draw. Although this trend from IRCC is unprecedented, after so many specific draws this year, now IRCC likely to go back to its normal draw routine of all-program draws.
