移民局终于兑现了“在一月底进行第一次邀请”的承诺，于世界协调时1月31日11点59分48秒（多伦多时间31日6:59，温哥华时间31日3:59，北京时间31日19:59）邀请了779人，不分项目（无论是联邦技术移民FSW、加拿大经验类移民CEC还是联邦技工移民，一视同仁）、不分职业（CEC被砍掉的6类职业并没有被特殊对待），邀请分数是886分或更高。
第一次只邀请有LMIA的申请人（Express Entry配套的PNP还没有任何一人被提名，所以没有人能加到省提名的600分），但并不是只要有LMIA就能被邀请因为我们有875分的客户没有被邀请。
希望二月会邀请一些没有LMIA的申请人，竞争如此激烈的情况下，我们估计分数线有可能超过400。
