Draw #336

Express Entry draw #336 was held on February 17, 2025, issuing 646 invitations to apply for permanent residence under the Provincial Nominee category with a minimum CRS score of 750.

The CRS cutoff dropped 52 points compared to the previous Provincial Nominee draw, suggesting increased competition relief or larger pool capacity.

A cutoff of 750 is on the higher end for Provincial Nominee draws, meaning candidates needed strong profiles across age, education, language, and work experience to qualify.

Provincial Nominee Program draws are for candidates who already hold a provincial nomination, which adds 600 CRS points.

Candidates below this cutoff should consider strategies like improving language scores, obtaining a provincial nomination, or gaining Canadian work experience to close the gap.
