The previous lowest score for the 2018 Express Entry system--441--was surpassed by the most recent draw on May 23rd, which saw anyone with a score of 440 or higher invited to apply for permanent residency in Canada. It was the 10th draw of 2018.

Elsewhere, Ontario has issued 75 additional invitations for their provincial nomination program through its Skilled Trades and French-Speaking Skilled Worker streams.

The Skilled Trades Stream is for skilled workers with eligible work experience in a skilled trade, a valid Express Entry profile and who qualify for the Canadian Experience Class.

The French-Speaking Skilled Worker Stream targets French-speaking candidates who qualify for either the Federal Skilled Worker Class or the Canadian Experience Class and who have adequate English language abilities (CLB 6 or higher).
