On July 7, 2025, Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship
Canada (IRCC) conducted Express Entry Draw #354, inviting 356 candidates under
the Provincial Nominee Program (PNP). The minimum CRS score required for this
round was 750, reflecting the high thresholds typically seen in PNP-focused
draws.
PNP draws remain a critical pathway for Canadian
immigration, allowing provinces and territories to nominate skilled workers who
meet local labour market needs. With the 600-point CRS boost awarded to
provincial nominees, candidates invited through PNP rounds consistently rank
among the top profiles in the Express Entry pool.
For applicants seeking permanent residency, securing a
provincial nomination remains one of the most effective strategies to improve
CRS scores and increase the likelihood of receiving an Invitation to Apply.
A&M Canadian Immigration Law Corporation can help you
explore provincial nominee options, assess your eligibility, and guide you
through the full Express Entry process with confidence.
