How This Draw History Is Compiled

The table gives one row per entry on IRCC's list, so round 91 of 30 May 2018 appears twice (91a and 91b), making 451 rows altogether. Names appear exactly as IRCC published them, even those it changed between versions; we sort those names into the kinds the filter and charts use. The tie-breaking rule column gives the profile date and time IRCC lists with each round; for the 76 rounds without one, the cell remains empty. These figures come from canada.ca, where IRCC publishes them, rather than from an Open Government Licence - Canada dataset; we therefore credit IRCC as the source of the facts we show.

Use the CRS calculator to compare these cut-offs with your own score. Visit the latest draw page for the newest round, or check the pool for the number of candidates at each score. When your invitation comes, the IRCC processing times page lists each step, with how long it takes today and through the last two years.
