Canadian Experience Class draw questions
Short answers from IRCC’s published rounds and eligibility rules.
- There is no fixed score; the cut-off is the lowest score invited in that round. Compare your score with the last five to ten CEC draws in the table above rather than a single one, and remember that candidates exactly at the cut-off can still miss out on the tie-break. This is general information from IRCC’s published rounds, not legal advice.
- You need at least 12 months of full-time (or equivalent part-time) skilled work experience in Canada within the last three years, gained while authorised to work, and a language result of CLB 7 (TEER 0 or 1 jobs) or CLB 5 (TEER 2 or 3). Self-employment and work done while studying full-time do not count. This is general information from IRCC’s published rounds, not legal advice.
- Probably not. From that date, 12 or more months of Canadian experience in a high-wage occupation adds up to 70 points, and most CEC candidates have Canadian experience, so many scores in the pool will rise. Expect cut-offs to move with them for a few rounds before settling. This is general information from IRCC’s published rounds, not legal advice.
