Express Entry Draw #63
May 26, 2017 — Provincial Nominee Program
Program Type
This was a targeted Provincial Nominee Program (PNP) draw. Candidates with a provincial nomination receive 600 additional CRS points, resulting in higher cutoffs for these rounds.
What This Draw Means
In Draw #63, IRCC invited 143 Express Entry candidates to apply for Canadian permanent residence. The minimum CRS score required was 775.
Candidates who received an Invitation to Apply (ITA) in this round had 60 days to submit a complete permanent residence application. Once submitted, Express Entry applications are typically processed within 6 months.
A cutoff of 775 is considered high, meaning most candidates needed strong profiles — typically combining Canadian work experience, high language scores, and/or a provincial nomination.
