Express Entry Update: PNP Candidates Invited in the Latest Draw (October 14, 2025)
Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) has conducted a new Express Entry draw inviting candidates under the Provincial Nominee Program (PNP) to apply for Canadian permanent residence.
In this latest round held on October 14, 2025, a total of 345 Invitations to Apply (ITAs) were issued to PNP candidates.
To qualify for an invitation, candidates were required to have:
A minimum Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) score of 778, and
An Express Entry profile created before July 17, 2025, at 7:58 p.m. (UTC).
This draw highlights Canada’s ongoing efforts to attract skilled professionals through targeted Express Entry rounds — enabling provinces and territories to nominate individuals who can fill key labour market gaps and contribute to regional development.
Recent Express Entry Draws in 2025
IRCC continues to conduct category-based draws across multiple programs, reflecting Canada’s diverse immigration priorities. Here’s a look at the most recent rounds of invitations:
October 14, 2025 – 345 invitations issued under the Provincial Nominee Program (PNP) with a CRS cut-off of 778.
October 6, 2025 – 4,500 invitations issued for candidates with French language proficiency, CRS 432.
October 1, 2025 – 1,000 invitations under the Canadian Experience Class (CEC) with CRS 534.
September 29, 2025 – 291 invitations for PNP candidates with CRS 855.
September 18, 2025 – 1,250 invitations for Trade Occupations, CRS 505.
The CRS cut-offs for PNP draws continue to remain high — typically above 700 — due to the additional 600 CRS points that come with a provincial nomination.
What This Means for Candidates?
Candidates with a provincial nomination continue to have a significant advantage in securing an ITA. Those looking to boost their chances in future draws should consider:
Applying for a Provincial Nominee Program (PNP) relevant to their occupation.
Enhancing their language proficiency in English or French.
Gaining additional skilled work experience or educational credentials.
The steady frequency of draws across various categories shows IRCC’s continued focus on addressing both national and regional labour market needs.
