PNP draws are known to have higher CRS score requirements due to the additional points awarded to nominees. Earlier in July, IRCC conducted a draw specifically for French-speaking candidates, issuing 3,200 ITAs to those with a minimum CRS score of 420. These draws highlight Canada’s strategic approach to selecting candidates with skills and experience that align with its provincial and federal immigration priorities.
