Latest CEC Express Entry Draw

This is the 6th Canadian Experience Class (CEC) draw where the government issued the same number of invitations as before. The CRS score stayed between 531–534, which shows that the process is stable.

Moreover, Canada is focusing more on candidates who are already working and living in Canada.

In addition, there is a chance that the next draw may focus on French speakers or healthcare workers.

Draw Details – November 26, 2025

Here are the main points of the draw:

  • Program: Canadian Experience Class (CEC)
  • Invitations issued: 1,000
  • CRS cut-off score: 531
  • Rank required: 1,000 or above
  • Tie-breaking date: October 8, 2025

Also, if more people had the same CRS score, the earlier profile submission was given priority.

What the Drop in CRS Score Means

The CRS score dropped slightly from recent draws.
As a result, this shows a small reduction in competition.

However, the competition is still strong, and candidates should stay prepared.

CRS Score Distribution

This shows how many people are in the Express Entry pool at different score levels.

In simple words:
Most candidates are in the 451–500 and 401–450 score ranges, which means competition is high in the mid-score range.

Throughout 2025, most CEC draws invited 1,000 candidates with CRS scores mostly between 518 and 547.

Therefore, the current score of 531 fits the regular trend.

What This Means for You

If your CRS score is between 531 and 535, you have a good chance in upcoming draws.

However, if your score is lower:

  • You can improve your language test score
  • Gain more work experience
  • Try for a Provincial Nominee Program (PNP)

Additionally, category-based draws (like French or healthcare) may give more opportunities.
