Since 15 September 2021, the Immigration Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) is consistently conducting the PNP draws only. Hence, there is no CEC, FST or FSW draw since then. This is primarily due to existing backlog of PR applications.

However, once the backlog is cleared, the IRCC will start conducting the regular all-program draws once again. This may happen next year possibly in first quarter.

For the meantime, if you are not getting the ITA (Invitation to Apply) since long, you may choose to apply to alternate Provincial Nominee Program (PNP) and get the provincial nomination to enhance your CRS score in EE system.

It will helps you obtain the ITA (Invitation to Apply) from IRCC in the PNP specific draw only. To confirm your eligibility and apply to the relevant PNP you may call Visas Avenue Canada Immigration Expert on Toll-Free No. 78-18-000-777 or send us an e-mail at info@visasavenue.com.
