Question 1

How often are Express Entry draws?

Accepted Answer

IRCC typically holds Express Entry draws roughly every two weeks, though timing varies. Category-based rounds (French, healthcare, STEM, trades, transport, agriculture) and program-specific rounds (CEC, PNP) are interleaved with general draws.

Question 2

What was the most recent Express Entry draw cutoff?

Accepted Answer

The Navisa draw tracker shows the latest draw — its date, the number of invitations, the CRS cutoff, and the round type — pulled from IRCC, newest first.

Question 3

What are category-based Express Entry draws?

Accepted Answer

Category-based draws invite candidates with specific attributes IRCC is prioritizing — strong French, or work experience in healthcare, STEM, trades, transport, or agriculture. These rounds often have lower CRS cutoffs than general draws.

Question 4

Would I have been invited in the last draw?

Accepted Answer

Enter your CRS score in the tracker and it highlights every recent draw you would have met the cutoff for — including the category rounds you may qualify for that you did not realize.
