Express Entry draw #400: Canadian Experience Class
On March 3, 2026, IRCC held Express Entry round #400, a Canadian Experience Class round. It issued 4,000 invitations to apply (ITAs), and the lowest-ranked candidate invited had a CRS score of 508. Compared with the previous Canadian Experience Class round (#396 on February 17, 2026, CRS 508), the cutoff held steady, with 2,000 fewer invitations.
