📊 Cut-off Dynamics & Intake Analysis
The cut-off score remained exactly flat at 451 points compared to the previous General round (#114). This indicates that candidate replenishment in the pool balanced closely with the 3,350 invitations issued.
With a cutoff established at 451 points, this 2019 round permitted IRCC to access broader candidate tiers across the pool, enabling eligible applicants under the General category to receive invitations below standard general score thresholds.
🎯 Anatomy of a 451 CRS Profile (Targeted General Candidate)
