Express Entry PR admissions in the first half of 2020

According to the recent figures by IRCC, for the first time in the history of Express Entry, the number of permanent residents in the Canadian Experience Class (CEC) overcame the number of immigrants in the Federal Skilled Worker Program (FSW). In the first half of 2020, Canada welcomed 43,240 immigrants through the Express Entry. 41.3% of them or 17,840 were CEC immigrants while 37.1% or 16,030 – FSW immigrants. Another 20.5% or 8,875 newcomers got their PR through the Express Entry-aligned streams of the Provincial Nominee Program (PNP). Finally, 1.1% or 495 immigrants were processed through the Federal Skilled Trades Program (FST). Having in mind the trends of invitations rounds caused by the COVID-19, we can assume that CEC immigrants will outnumber by far all other programs this year.
