Express Entry Draws 2026: Latest Results and CRS Cut-Offs

It depends on the draw type. In 2026, Canadian Experience Class rounds have needed 507 to 523 points, French-language rounds 382 to 420, healthcare rounds 467 to 475 and trades rounds 476 to 477.

The ranges are taken from IRCC’s published rounds between January 1 and October 1, 2026. The live tables in the tool above update with every new round.

Each round shows its draw type, the number of invitations and the CRS score of the lowest-ranked candidate invited. If you qualify for that draw type and your score is at or above the cut-off, you would have been invited.

• The draw type decides who can be invited. A CEC round only invites people eligible for the Canadian Experience Class.
• The cut-off is the lowest score invited in that round, not a target IRCC sets in advance.
• When several candidates share the cut-off score, IRCC invites those whose profile was created first, up to a published tie-breaking date and time.
• Category draws are based on your work experience and language. Check your occupation with the NOC code finder.

The table below lists every round of invitations, newest first. Filter it by draw type to see how a category has moved over time.
