503 Candidates get the Golden Ticket in the latest Canada PNP Draw!

On June 23, 2025, Canada conducted its latest Express Entry draw, exclusively for candidates under the Provincial Nominee Program (PNP). 

In this round, 503 invitations to apply (ITAs) for permanent residence were issued to candidates who had received a provincial nomination.

To receive an invitation, candidates needed a Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) score of at least 742. This high score is expected, as a provincial nomination adds 600 points to a candidate’s base CRS score, significantly increasing their chances of selection.

Date of Draw: June 23, 2025

What This Means for Future Applicants

This draw highlights the significance of provincial nominations for candidates seeking to immigrate to Canada from India in 2025. A PNP nomination not only aligns candidates with a province’s labor needs but also guarantees a significant CRS boost, improving their chances of receiving an ITA.

If you're wondering how to immigrate to Canada from India in 2025, especially with increasing CRS cut-offs, the PNP route is one of the most reliable and strategic pathways. 

What is the Provincial Nominee Program?

The Provincial Nominee Program (PNP) allows Canadian provinces and territories to nominate skilled immigrants who meet their specific labor market needs.
