Will IRCC hold Canadian Experience Class draws?

On March 21, 2024, Marc Miller, Minister of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC), announced plans to increase domestic draws for transitioning temporary residents to permanent ones in Canada. This suggests a possible return of Express Entry Canadian Experience Class (CEC) draws. The last CEC draw was on September 14, 2021, with 2000 CEC applicants invited and a CRS cut-off of 462. Since September 2021, IRCC has shifted from CEC to general, PNP, and Category-based draws. The return of CEC draws may not significantly impact the CRS cut-off due to the trend of general draws.
