Canada: Latest Express Entry Selection Shows Ongoing Flexibility
Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) will invite 1,018 candidates to apply for permanent residence in its most recent Express Entry draw, which ends tomorrow. The selection process continues to indicate flexibility since IRCC is selecting candidates who do not have a valid Labour Market Impact Assessment or Provincial Nomination approval at the time their profile is selected.

What This Means for Employers and Foreign Nationals
While an LMIA or PN approval will guarantee an employee's selection and invitation for permanent residence, such documents are not required in all cases. This draw once again demonstrates that employees without LMIA or PN approvals continue to be selected in the Express Entry draw.
