The most popular way to immigrate to Canada
Is it that easy?
The most record-breaking Express Entry draw with a minimum score took place on March 29 in Canada. While in 2022 the number of invitations ranged from 1,500 to 4,750, now it has increased to a remarkable 7,000. In March, a total of 21,000 lucky people were invited. And the required minimum score is decreasing each time. Last year it started at 557, then dropped to 542, and finally hit an all-time low of 491. On March 29, it dropped even more.
But if you're already imagining your name in the invitation list, I'm sorry to disappoint you — it won't be there.
Express Entry
If you're unfamiliar with Express Entry, let me give you a quick overview. It's a system that allows you to register for a chance to receive an invitation to immigrate to Canada. Your application will be evaluated based on various factors such as your age, work experience, education, language skills, and more.
The passing score is announced several times a month by Canadian officials. If you reach it, you have to submit your documents, wait for them to be checked. Once approved, you'll receive a visa in your passport and can proceed with booking a flight to Canada.

I want to note that the most recent draws don't require a job offer and the passing score was 481 out of a possible 1,200. That might seem like a significant difference, but is it really easy to get this score? I'm going to tell you about it.
