Canada Invites 5,000 French Speakers To Permanent Residency

5,000 candidates were invited to apply for PR in the latest French-language proficiency draw. Candidates who submitted their Express Entry profiles before July 13, 2026, at 7:22 p.m. UTC and who had a minimum Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) score of 407 were invited in the 27th October Express Entry draw.

The CRS cutoff has decreased by 28 points compared to the previous French-speaking draw that was held on 16th October, which had a minimum score of 435.

Canada has now issued 60,000 invitations through French-language category-based draws in 2026. This indicates the continued commitment to strengthening Francophone immigration outside Quebec.
