Canada, IRCC held its first Express Entry's program specific draw for the year 2023.

Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) invited 893 Provincial Nominee Program (PNP) candidates with a minimum Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) score of 733 to become permanent residents.
Since July 2022, this was the first program-specific Express Entry draw. From July till now, IRCC held all-program draws in which all eligible Express Entry candidates were considered for invites. Express Entry candidates may be invited without a provincial nomination from one of the three program controlled by the Express Entry application management system in an all-program draw.

A candidate's CRS score rises by 600 points after receiving provincial nomination. To be eligible for this draw, Express Entry applicants needed a minimum CRS score of 133 before receiving provincial nomination. Express Entry applicants in this draw have already been nominated by their respective provinces. Provincial Nominee Programs (PNPs) enable Canadian governments to propose people who meet regional labour market and demographic goals. Except for Quebec and Nunavut, the majority of Canadian provinces and territories have PNPs that are linked with Express Entry.

Over the last five years, Canada has been a more popular destination for immigrants, with 8% of respondents in 2021 stating they would choose to go to Canada rather than the United States. According to the research, the COVID-19 pandemic had little effect on people's willingness to migrate. This is clear from the rate at which migration has resumed since pandemic travel restrictions were lifted. For example, between 2021 and 2022, net foreign migration in the United States topped one million individuals.
