Key Analysis of the Draw
This is the 3rd draw of express entry and with this draw, the IRCC is back in the positive mode again more like what it was in the first half of the year. The IRCC also ended the pattern of launching few draws, which it followed in the month of June and July.

The other key thing to observe here is the number of invitations. This year, IRCC constantly followed the trend of issuing close to 3,000 Canada PR invitations via every draw of express entry. The current draw also sustained the ongoing trend as the number of PR invitations issued is 3,035 only.
The qualifying marks or CRS score requirement is increased marginally by just one point, but it this marginal increase is not as big to raise eyebrows of the express entry applicants. Overall, the IRCC continued the trend, which it was following in the first half of the year, i.e. low qualifying marks and number of invitations beyond 3,000. Hence, the EE draws this year have been a pleasant surprise for the tens of thousands of express entry applicants who have low CRS score.
