Canada Conducts Largest Express Entry Draw of 2025, Inviting 7,500 Francophone Candidates

Canada Conducts Largest Express Entry Draw of 2025, Inviting 7,500 Francophone Candidates

On March 21, 2025, Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) conducted its largest French-language category-based Express Entry draw to date, issuing 7,500 Invitations to Apply (ITAs) for permanent residency. The minimum Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) score required for this draw was 379. 

This draw surpasses previous French-language draws, such as the one on March 6, 2025, which issued 4,500 ITAs with a minimum CRS score of 410, and the February 19, 2025, draw that invited 6,500 candidates with a minimum CRS score of 428. 

The significant size of this draw aligns with Canada's ongoing efforts to promote Francophone immigration outside Quebec, aiming to strengthen French-speaking communities across the country. French-speaking candidates benefit from additional CRS points, enhancing their competitiveness in the Express Entry system.

To be eligible for the French-language proficiency category, candidates must have French-language test results showing a minimum score of 7 in all four language abilities on the Niveaux de compétence linguistique canadiens (NCLC.

This draw reflects Canada's commitment to increasing Francophone immigration and promoting bilingualism outside Quebec. French-speaking candidates are encouraged to take advantage of these opportunities to immigrate to Canada.
