Under a new draw held on October 3, the Government of Canada has invited 3,900 Express Entry candidates to apply for Canadian permanent residence. The minimum comprehensive ranking system score for this draw was 445.

This invitation was the third draw from Express Entry pool in three weeks and marks a return top 3,900 invitations to apply, which is the largest number drawn in 2018. The tie-break date and time in this draw was October 2, 2018 at 04:02:11 UTC. All the candidates with a score of 445 and above, 
who have submitted their profile before this date and time received an ITA in this invitation round.

The Express Entry manages the profiles of candidates in Canada’s three main federal economic immigration categories- the Federal Skilled Worker Class, the Federal Skilled Trades Class, and the Canadian Experience Class.

The candidates are ranked on the basis of their Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS), which awards points based on factors including education, age, work experience and proficiency in French or English.

The candidates ranking highest are issued an Invitation to Apply through regular invitation rounds.
IRCC has introduced large, standardized draw sizes that have gradually increased over the course of the year up to the current high of 3,900 ITAs.

The Express Entry candidates can also improve their ranking in a number of ways, including provincial nominations that result in 600 additional CRS points.
