Canada conducted a new Canadian Experience Class (CEC) draw under the Express Entry system on April 14, 2026, continuing its focus on candidates with Canadian work experience.
A total of 2,000 Invitations to Apply (ITAs) were issued, with a Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) cut-off score of 515.
This draw highlights Canada’s ongoing priority toward individuals who are already contributing to the local workforce. Candidates with Canadian experience continue to benefit from targeted draws, making the CEC pathway one of the most reliable routes to Permanent Residence.
With CRS scores remaining competitive, applicants close to the cut-off are encouraged to strengthen their profiles and stay prepared for upcoming rounds.
