All-Program
Draw Issues 2,000 ITAs with CRS Cut-Off of 533
On August 3,
2022, IRCC conducted Express Entry Draw #228, once again holding an All-Program
draw. In this round, 2,000 Invitations to Apply (ITAs) were issued, and the
minimum CRS score dropped further to 533.
This draw showed a clear and positive trend:
✔ More candidates were being
invited
✔ CRS scores were steadily
decreasing
✔ Express Entry was returning
to a more balanced and predictable system
After the restart of All-Program draws in
July, IRCC continued to increase the size of invitations. The CRS cut-off
dropping from 542 to 533 in just two weeks was a strong signal that the pool
was beginning to normalize.
For many
skilled workers, this was the clearest sign yet that Express Entry was truly
back after months of limited access.
At A&M Canadian Immigration Law Corporation, we help candidates:
✔ Track CRS trends
✔ Strengthen profiles
strategically
✔ Prepare for upcoming
all-program rounds
Draw #228 confirmed that summer 2022 marked the revival of Canada’s Express Entry system
with expanding opportunities for skilled workers worldwide.
