Draw #140

Express Entry draw #140 was held on March 23, 2020, issuing 3,232 invitations to apply for permanent residence under the Canadian Experience Class category with a minimum CRS score of 467.

The CRS cutoff dropped 341 points compared to the previous Canadian Experience Class draw, suggesting increased competition relief or larger pool capacity. IRCC also increased the invitation count by 2,383, signaling a broader intake for this round.

A cutoff of 467 is in the typical range for Canadian Experience Class draws. Candidates with a combination of youth, a master's degree, and strong language scores would generally clear this threshold.

Canadian Experience Class draws target candidates with at least one year of skilled Canadian work experience within the past three years.

If your CRS score is within 30 points of this cutoff, focusing on language test improvement or gaining additional Canadian work experience could make the difference in an upcoming draw.
