Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) has stated internally that they do not expect any Federal Skilled worker (FSW) or Canadian Experience Class (CEC) draws to occur in the next six months. IRCC anticipates that when draws do resume, applicants will need a Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) score of at least 500 for the first six months of draws. They also anticipate that they will draw 50% fewer FSW and CEC applicants than expected in 2022 to make room for applicants in other programs. You can view the Memorandum below. Any redactions that were made were done so by the government when releasing the information.
