Canada PR Express Entry Draw – June 10, 2025
On June 10, 2025, Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) held a new Canada PR Express Entry Draw under the Provincial Nominee Program (PNP). A total of 125 Invitations to Apply (ITAs) were issued to candidates who had received a provincial nomination.
This category-specific draw focused on Express Entry candidates nominated by a Canadian province or territory. The minimum Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) score required was 784, which includes the 600 bonus points awarded through a PNP nomination. This draw highlights the important role of provincial nominations in boosting CRS scores and helping candidates receive invitations to apply for Canadian permanent residence.
June 10, 2025 Canada PR Express Entry Draw Summary
- Draw Type: Provincial Nominee Program (PNP)
- Date: June 10, 2025
- Number of Invitations Issued: 125
- Minimum CRS Score Required: 784

Who Was Selected in the June 10 PNP Express Entry Draw?
This Canada PR Express Entry Draw was limited to Express Entry candidates who had secured a nomination from a Canadian province or territory through the PNP. Thanks to the 600-point nomination boost, most successful candidates had base CRS scores in the low- to mid-100s before nomination.
The PNP nomination is particularly valuable for skilled workers whose CRS score falls below the cutoff in general Express Entry draws. Aligning your skills and experience with a province’s labour market needs can significantly increase your chances of receiving an Invitation to Apply (ITA).
CRS Score Distribution in the Express Entry Pool (as of June 9, 2025)
According to IRCC, over 256,000 candidates were in the Express Entry pool before this draw. The distribution of CRS scores was as follows:
- 601–1200: 102 candidates
- 501–600: 24,823 candidates
- 451–500: 76,090 candidates
- 491–500: 13,101

Why This Canada PR Express Entry Draw Matters
Canada continues to rely heavily on the Provincial Nominee Program (PNP) to address regional labour shortages and support economic immigration targets. For candidates with lower CRS scores, obtaining a provincial nomination is often the most effective way to receive an ITA in the Canada PR Express Entry Draw.
This draw also confirms IRCC’s commitment to targeted Express Entry rounds in 2025. Whether you are already in the Express Entry pool or just starting your Canadian immigration journey, staying informed about category-specific draws like this one is essential.

Frequently Asked Questions About the Canada PR Express Entry Draw (June 10, 2025)
Why was the CRS cutoff so high in this draw?
Because this was a PNP-only draw. Candidates with a provincial nomination receive 600 additional CRS points, so the minimum score reflects that boost.
What is the benefit of getting a provincial nomination?
It significantly increases your CRS score and nearly guarantees an Invitation to Apply in the next PNP-focused draw.
Can I apply for Express Entry without a PNP nomination?
Yes. Many candidates qualify under the Federal Skilled Worker, Canadian Experience Class, or Federal Skilled Trades programs. However, a PNP nomination can improve your chances if your CRS score is not competitive in general draws.
Is a PNP nomination valid for all provinces in Canada?
No. A PNP nomination is issued by a specific province or territory and usually requires you to settle there as a condition of the nomination.
How can I improve my CRS score aside from PNP?
You can improve your score by boosting language test results, gaining more work experience, completing further education, or securing a valid job offer from a Canadian employer.
