Type: French-language proficiency (Version 2)
CRS Cut-off Score: 419
Candidates in the Express Entry pool with strong French proficiency were targeted.
Anyone with a CRS score of 419 or higher and meeting the French-language criteria had a chance of receiving an Invitation to Apply (ITA).
This cut-off is significantly lower than general draws, which often exceed 500 — meaning French speakers have a major advantage.

Express Entry: Category-based selection 2026

Some of the eligible occupations for existing categories have changed and may impact your eligibility for category-based rounds of invitation.
