Canada Immigration: Latest Express Entry Draw Targets Canadian Experience Class
Canada Immigration: Latest Express Entry Draw Targets Canadian Experience Class
???????? Express Entry: Canadian Experience Class candidates invited in latest draw
Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) has conducted a new Express Entry draw, inviting 1,000 Canadian Experience Class (CEC) candidates to apply for permanent residence. This marks another significant opportunity for skilled workers already contributing to the Canadian economy to take the next step towards settling in Canada permanently.
Key details of the draw
Number of Invitations to Apply (ITAs): 1,000
Program Category: Canadian Experience Class (CEC)
Minimum Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) score: 534
Profile creation requirement: Candidates must have submitted their Express Entry profile before 8:28 a.m. (UTC) on August 14, 2025
This means that only candidates with sufficient CRS points and a timely profile submission were eligible to receive an invitation in this round.
Context of recent draws
This CEC-specific draw comes just one day after another round held on September 2, 2025, where IRCC invited 249 candidates under the Provincial Nominee Program (PNP) with a higher CRS cut-off of 772.
Together, these draws highlight Canada’s ongoing commitment to welcoming skilled talent through both federal and provincial immigration pathways.
What this means for candidates?
The Canadian Experience Class is designed for skilled workers who already have Canadian work experience and wish to become permanent residents. With a CRS cut-off of 534, this draw indicates that competition remains strong, but also achievable for candidates who have gained valuable work experience in Canada.
Candidates who were not invited in this round can still improve their chances by:
Updating their Express Entry profile with additional work experience or education
Obtaining a provincial nomination, which adds 600 points to their CRS score
Improving their language test results
Ensuring all profile details are accurate and up to date
Looking ahead
IRCC continues to conduct draws regularly, targeting different categories such as the Federal Skilled Worker Program (FSWP), Canadian Experience Class (CEC), Provincial Nominee Program (PNP), and occasionally occupation-specific draws.
