On October 23, 2024, Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship
Canada (IRCC) conducted Express Entry Draw #321, issuing 1,800 Invitations to
Apply (ITAs) under the trade occupations category. The minimum CRS score
required for this round was 433, marking the second trade-focused draw of the
year with the same number of candidates invited as the first.
Trade occupation draws target skilled workers in high-demand
fields such as carpentry, plumbing, electrical work, welding, and other
essential trades. With a CRS cut-off of 433, this round offered a valuable
opportunity for trades professionals whose profiles may not be competitive in
general draws.
For applicants in eligible trades, category-based draws like
this highlight the importance of practical skills and industry experience in
improving Express Entry prospects.

assess your eligibility for trade-focused draws, strengthen your CRS profile,
