Latest Express Entry Draw – Canadian Experience Class – October 1, 2025
Canada continues to welcome skilled talent through its Express Entry system, with the latest draw focused on the Canadian Experience Class (CEC). On October 1, 2025, Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) issued 1,000 invitations to candidates with a minimum Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) score of 534. Express Entry Draw Results – October 1, 2025 As in every draw, the tie-breaking rule was applied to ensure fairness when multiple candidates had the minimum CRS score of 534. In such cases, only those who submitted their Express Entry profiles before the cut-off date and time received invitations. Why the CEC Draw Matters The Canadian Experience Class is a critical pathway within Express Entry that recognizes the value of skilled workers who already have work experience in Canada. By prioritizing candidates with Canadian work history, this program helps ensure a smoother transition to permanent residence, as these individuals are already well integrated into Canadian society and the labour market. This draw demonstrates Canada’s ongoing commitment to providing opportunities for skilled workers who contribute to the economy and communities across the country.
