On January 11, 2023, Canada hosted its first Express Entry draw of the year and its first since November 23, 2022.
5,500 applicants with a minimum Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) score of 507 received invites from IRCC. The Federal Skilled Worker Program (FSWP), the Canadian Experience Class (CEC), and the Federal Skilled Trades Program invited the best-qualified applicants. All of these initiatives were under the Express Entry system of Canada.

There were 750 more invites than the draw on November 23, which invited 4,750 applicants. The CRS score was also higher than it has been since the lottery on September 28.
