High CRS Score for PNP Candidates
While the CRS score requirement of 732 points for this PNP-specific draw might seem high, it's important to note that these candidates already possess provincial nominations and have secured 600 points based on this. This effectively reduces the competition for them. However, future draws targeting specific categories, such as French-speaking candidates or those with experience in high-demand occupations, are expected to have lower CRS score requirements.
