Even though most draws this year were program-specific draws, Express Entry has invited a record number of candidates, especially when we compare it to last year invitation at this point.

 

This year Express Entry annual invitation target is to invite 108,500 candidates to apply for a Canadian Permanent Residence (PR) visa. Moreover, Canadian Provincial Nominee Programs (PNPs) will also invite 80,800 candidates this year.

 

Hence, this year can be the best opportunity to apply for and obtain a Canada PR visa.
