In the 6 July 2026 PNP draw, Canada has invited 534 candidates under the Provincial Nominee Program (PNP) to apply for permanent residence. Candidates who had a minimum Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) score of 708 and who had created an Express Entry candidate profile before 2:49 p.m. UTC on 4 June 2026 were considered for the draw. This is the lowest PNP cut-off score recorded so far in 2026.
Provincial Nominee Programs allows Canadian provinces and territories to nominate skilled workers whose qualifications match with local economic and workforce demands. Successful nominees receive additional CRS points. This improves the possibility of receiving an ITA through Express Entry.
Candidates with Canadian work experience or provincial nominations have been given priority in most Express Entry draws of 2026. Prospective candidates are advised to maintain an updated Express Entry profile and also regularly monitor the future draws. CRS requirements can differ based on the category and evolving immigration priorities of Canada.
