Draw #426

Express Entry draw #426 was held on July 10, 2026, issuing 500 invitations to apply for permanent residence under the Senior managers with Canadian work experience category with a minimum CRS score of 392.

The CRS cutoff dropped 37 points compared to the previous Senior managers with Canadian work experience draw, suggesting increased competition relief or larger pool capacity.

A cutoff of 392 is notably low for Express Entry, making this round accessible to a wide range of candidates including those without Canadian work experience or a provincial nomination.

If your CRS score is within 30 points of this cutoff, focusing on language test improvement or gaining additional Canadian work experience could make the difference in an upcoming draw.
