Canada Express Entry Draw held on June 2, 2025
Canada Express Entry Draw held on June 2, 2025
Express Entry Draw No.347 held on June 2,2025
Provincial Nominee Program (PNP) Only
Canada continues to prioritize targeted immigration through its Express Entry system, with a draw held on June 2, 2025, focusing exclusively on Provincial Nominee Program (PNP) candidates.
Draw Summary:
Draw Number: 347
Date: June 2, 2025
Category: Provincial Nominee Program (PNP)
Number of Invitations Issued:277
Minimum CRS Score Required:726
Tie-Breaking Rule Applied: September 24, 2024, at 15:46:19 UTC
Key Notes:
All invited applicants had received a provincial nomination, which added 600 points to their base CRS score.
This draw underscores the continued strategic importance of PNPs in Canada's immigration planning, especially as Express Entry adapts with more occupation- and category-based draws.
Recent Express Entry Draws:
In May 2025, IRCC held four Express Entry draws, distributing a total of 2,511 ITAs:
May 1:Education occupations – 1,000 ITAs (CRS 479)
May 2:Healthcare and Social Services occupations – 500 ITAs (CRS 510)
May 12:PNP – 511 ITAs (CRS 706)
May 13:Canadian Experience Class (CEC) – 500 ITAs (CRS 547)
Notably,the May 13 CEC draw marked the first in over three months, with a record-high CRS cutoff for CEC in 2025.
Policy Changes and Trends:
Removal of Arranged Employment Points:On March 25, IRCC eliminated CRS points for arranged employment, previously worth 50–200 points. This change was anticipated to lower CRS cutoffs; however,subsequent draws have maintained high thresholds, particularly for CEC candidates.
Reduced PNP Allocations: Annual quotas for PNPs have been halved, leading to fewer provincial nominations and smaller PNP-specific draws.
Processing Inventory: As of April 30, 2025, IRCC had 880,800 permanent residence applications in processing, sufficient to meet targets through April 2027. This backlog may contribute to the cautious pace of new ITAs.
Outlook for Candidates:
Enhance CRS Scores:Focus on improving language proficiency, obtaining higher education credentials, or gaining additional work experience to boost CRS points.
Explore PNP Opportunities:Despite reduced quotas, securing a provincial nomination remains a viable pathway, adding 600 points to a candidate's CRS score.
Monitor Category-Based Draws: IRCC has shown a preference for targeted draws, such as those for specific occupations or language proficiencies. Aligning one's profile with these categories may increase chances of selection
