Open Data

The datasets behind the tools, published as JSON and CSV. Every row is checked against the official government source, every file carries the date it was last verified, and all of it is free to reuse with attribution.

What this is

Honest data, and how it got here

ClearToEnter keeps three datasets that people ask for constantly and that nobody publishes in a usable shape: Express Entry rounds of invitations, provincial nominee draws, and IRCC processing times. Each one is typed by hand from the official government page, checked line by line, and stamped with the date that check happened.

The stamp is the point. A dataset with no verification date is a dataset you cannot reason about. Each file below carries its own date in the export itself, in a meta block at the top of the JSON and in a comment header at the top of the CSV, so the number travels with the data instead of living only on this page.

These are snapshots, not live feeds. Government pages change, and a figure that was right on the verified date can be wrong a week later. Treat the exports as a convenient copy of what the official source said on a specific day, and check the official page before you act on anything.

The datasets

Three files, one standard

Express Entry draws

85 rounds

One row per round of invitations IRCC has published: draw number, date, round type (general, CEC, PNP, French, category-based), CRS cutoff, and invitations issued. The full history the site keeps, most recent first.

Verified

Or call the endpoint directly: GET /api/data/express-entry-draws ?format=csv

PNP draws

104 rounds

One row per provincial round: province, stream, date, provincial score minimum, and invitations issued. Provincial scores are not CRS scores and do not compare across provinces. Where a province suppresses a small count, the published phrase is kept instead of a made-up number.

Verified

Verified per province

Processing times

24 programs

A snapshot of IRCC’s published times: program, category, online and paper estimates, and the reason a row is an estimate rather than a straight IRCC figure. Streams that are not in IRCC’s tool at all are flagged as such, never dressed up as official.

The licence

Free to use, with a visible credit

Plain language, no lawyering. You may use, share, republish, chart, and build on these datasets, commercially or not, as long as you do the following.

Credit us with a visible link

Say the data comes from ClearToEnter and include a working link to cleartoenter.ca that a reader can click. A credit buried in a footer is fine; a credit that nobody can follow is not.

Do not imply endorsement

Using the data does not mean we reviewed, approved, or partnered with your project. Do not present it as though we did.

Keep the verification date attached

The verified-on date is part of the data. If you republish figures without it, readers cannot tell whether they are looking at something current.

Do not present it as advice

This is educational data about published government figures. It is not immigration advice, it is not an official government feed, and it should never be presented as either.

No warranty

The data is provided as is. We check it carefully and correct errors quickly, but we cannot guarantee it is free of mistakes, and government sources change without notice. For any decision that matters, verify the figure on the official source linked beside each dataset above.

Put the latest draws on your site

A small, self-contained card showing the five most recent Express Entry rounds and the date the data was verified. No tracking, no cookies, no scripts of ours running on your page. Paste the snippet anywhere HTML is allowed.

Embed code
<iframe src="https://cleartoenter.ca/embed/ee-draws" width="420" height="460" style="border:0;border-radius:12px" title="Express Entry draws, verified by ClearToEnter"></iframe>

The credit line at the bottom of the card is required and must stay visible and clickable. That link is the whole price of the widget.

This is the real widget, loaded from this site. It updates whenever the draw data is re-verified, so once the snippet is on your page there is nothing to maintain.
