Canada has conducted a new Express Entry draw under the Provincial Nominee Program (PNP), issuing 792 Invitations to Apply (ITAs) to candidates with a minimum Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) score of 761.
Key Express Entry Draw Details
Immigration category: Provincial Nominee Program (PNP)
Invitations issued: 792
Minimum CRS score: 761
A provincial nomination can significantly increase a candidate’s CRS score. However, candidates must still meet the relevant immigration program requirements.
Upcoming Express Entry CRS Changes — 3 November 2026
Important points for candidates:
Candidates cannot combine the two awards; the higher applicable award will be used.
Qualifying job offers will no longer require an LMIA for the specified CRS points, subject to the announced rules.
Candidates seeking qualifying job-offer points should update the required information before 3 November.
These changes concern Express Entry CRS scoring and do not represent a general change to student visa eligibility.
What This Means for Applicants
Candidates pursuing Canadian permanent residence through Express Entry should review their CRS scores, provincial nomination opportunities and eligibility under the upcoming scoring changes.
Important: A high CRS score or provincial nomination does not guarantee an Invitation to Apply in every draw.
