Key Highlights
- 125 ITAs issued in the June 10 Express Entry draw targeting PNP candidates
- Minimum required Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) score was 784
- Candidates needed to have submitted their Express Entry profile before September 12, 2024, at 6:12 p.m. UTC
- This is the third Express Entry draw of June and the 10th PNP-focused draw of the year
- Total ITAs issued in 2025 so far: 35,342
- PNP draws remain a strong focus of the Express Entry system in 2025
June 10 Express Entry Draw: What You Need to Know
In this targeted draw, IRCC issued 125 Invitations to Apply to Express Entry candidates nominated under the Provincial Nominee Program. To be eligible, applicants needed a CRS score of at least 784 and must have submitted their Express Entry profile before 6:12 p.m. UTC on September 12, 2024.
This draw is part of IRCC’s continued strategy to target skilled individuals who have already received a provincial nomination, which automatically adds 600 points to their CRS score. That’s why cut-off scores in PNP-specific draws tend to be significantly higher than those in other categories.

Summary of Recent Express Entry Draws

Can You Update Your Express Entry Profile?
Yes, you absolutely can — and should — update your Express Entry profile after submitting it, as long as you’re still eligible. Whether you’ve completed additional work experience, improved your language scores, or earned a new credential, these changes can help boost your CRS score. That could make all the difference in getting an ITA down the road.
But be careful — any updates must reflect your situation accurately. Submitting incorrect or outdated information can be considered misrepresentation, even if it’s unintentional. And in Canadian immigration, misrepresentation is a serious matter. It can lead to:
- Your ITA being revoked
- Permanent resident status being cancelled
- Fines and legal consequences
- A ban from applying for Canadian immigration for several years
So always be honest with your profile. If something changes — like a new job, a language test retake, or family circumstances — update your Express Entry profile right away.
What Does This Mean for PNP Applicants?
If you’ve been nominated by a province, this draw is more proof that your pathway to Canadian permanent residence is one of the most promising. PNP candidates continue to receive significant attention from IRCC, and the Enhanced nomination through Express Entry gives you an edge with those 600 additional CRS points.

Final Thoughts: Stay Competitive and Prepared
The Express Entry system continues to evolve with a strong emphasis on category-based draws and provincial nominations. If you’re a skilled worker hoping to move to Canada, now’s a smart time to make sure your profile is up-to-date, competitive, and aligned with the latest trends.
Whether you’re just starting your immigration journey or waiting for your ITA, staying informed about the latest draws and eligibility criteria will help you take the right next step.
