Why provincial nominee rounds show such high scores

A Provincial Nominee round will often show a cut-off in the 700s, which looks unreachable next to a Canadian Experience Class round in the 500s. It isn't a harder draw — it is a different arithmetic.

An enhanced provincial nomination adds 600 points to your CRS. The most recent PNP round cut off at 734, which means the candidates invited were sitting at roughly 134 before the nomination was counted.

That is the whole reason a nomination is worth chasing: it does not improve your ranking, it removes ranking as the obstacle. Which province might nominate you is what the score calculators are for.

Provincial draws

read from each province · 2026-08-21

The rounds above are federal. These are the provinces selecting from their own pools, on their own grids, with their own minimum scores — and there is no data feed for any of them. Every row below was read off the province's own page on the date stamped in this header, and each block links to the page it came from.

OINP

Ontario · Ontario Workforce Priority stream
no rounds yet

No round since 30 April 2026

Ontario's last invitation round was an Employer Job Offer round on 30 April 2026. On 26 June it removed all eight former OINP streams and replaced them with a single Workforce Priority stream, and the expression-of-interest portal opened on 4 August 2026. No round has been held under the new stream, and Ontario publishes no schedule and gives no advance notice. The employer registers the job offer first; the candidate then has 30 days to file an EOI.

2026 allocation 14,119

Nothing to show — and that is the finding, not a gap in this table. 14,119 nomination spaces are allocated for 2026 and none have been drawn for under this stream.

drawing

Drawing roughly twice a month, and minimum scores are falling

British Columbia selects by category rather than in one general round, so a single draw date produces several different minimum scores. Every repeated category came down between the 9 July and 6 August rounds. Note the two rows dated 20 August: the High Economic Impact lane is selected on a wage floor, not on points, and BC publishes no minimum score for it at all. Score yourself on the BC PNP grid →

The most frequent draws in the country, at the lowest scores

Alberta runs small, targeted rounds almost weekly — 69 of them so far in 2026. Its published minimums are far below every other province's because the AAIP grid is scored out of 100, not 200. Alberta also states plainly that the EOI score is not the only thing it selects on, so a score above the published minimum is not a guarantee of an invitation. Score yourself on the AAIP grid →

2 of 3 programs currently running rounds. A provincial minimum score cannot be compared across provinces — the grids are out of different totals.

What this page is not

The two halves are not the same event and cannot be read against each other. A federal round draws from the Express Entry pool on the CRS. A provincial round draws from that province's own pool on that province's own grid, and a minimum score of 84 in British Columbia has nothing in common with 84 in Alberta — the grids are out of different totals.

Nothing here predicts a future cut-off. Scores move with the pool every round, provinces give no advance notice, and anyone offering you next month's number is guessing.

Official sources

Two governments own two halves of this. The province scores you and nominates; only IRCC can grant permanent residence. Nothing on this site is official — where it disagrees with the pages below, they are right and this is wrong.

IRCC

Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada

Owns Express Entry, the CRS, and granting permanent residence. It does not publish provincial points grids.
