The most recent draw targeted Senior managers with Canadian Work Experience, 2026-Version 1. The date and time was July 10, 2026 at 10:42:46 UTC. The CRS score of lowest-ranked candidate invited was 392.
The number of invitations issued was 500. The rank needed was 500 or above. The tie-breaking rule was March 15, 2026 at 01:46:05 UTC.
If more than one candidate has the lowest score, the cut-off is based on the date and time they submitted their Express Entry profiles.
