Express Entry Draw Results – 2026

Express Entry Draw Results (All Programs)

These draws invite candidates from all Express Entry-managed programs — Federal Skilled Worker (FSW), Canadian Experience Class (CEC), and Federal Skilled Trades (FST). IRCC typically uses All-Program draws when they want a wide selection of skilled workers across different occupations and backgrounds.

Category-Based Draws

Category-based draws target specific groups of candidates with work experience in priority sectors such as healthcare, STEM, trades, agriculture, transportation, and strong French-language proficiency. CRS scores in these draws are usually lower because IRCC selects candidates based on category alignment, not overall ranking.

Alberta Advantage Immigration (AAIP) Draws – 2026

Alberta selects candidates from its Expression of Interest pool through the Alberta Advantage Immigration Program (AAIP). These draws target individuals who can support Alberta’s economic and labour market priorities. Invitations are issued through streams such as the Alberta Express Entry Stream, Dedicated Healthcare Pathway, Family Connection Category, and other priority sectors. CRS scores in Alberta draws are often lower than federal Express Entry draws because selections focus on provincial needs, including applicants with Alberta work experience, job offers, or close family ties in the province.
