No rounds match that. to see all 438 again.
Every figure is taken from Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada’s official rounds feed, the same data their own page renders from, under the Open Government Licence – Canada. Cut-offs for Provincial Nominee rounds include the 600 points a nomination is worth, so they are not comparable with the other categories.

The four questions the archive gets asked most, answered from the full 438-round series rather than from the latest draw.
How many Express Entry draws have there been?
IRCC has held 438 rounds of invitations since the first Express Entry draw on 31 Jan 2015, issuing 1,037,113 invitations to apply in total. The most recent was round #437 on 19 Aug 2026 — 5,000 invitations at a CRS cut-off of 382.
What is the lowest Express Entry CRS score ever drawn?
The lowest cut-off in Express Entry history is 75, set by round #176 on 13 Feb 2021. That round was a Canadian Experience Class draw and it invited 27,332 candidates — the largest single round ever held. It is not a benchmark: it cleared a backlog during the pandemic, when the pool held almost no new candidates.
What is the highest Express Entry cut-off ever?
The highest cut-off is 902, set by round #91b on 30 May 2018. It was a Provincial Nominee Program round, and Provincial Nominee cut-offs are high by construction: a nomination adds 600 points to a candidate's score, so a 902 cut-off is a base score of roughly 302.
How many invitations has Express Entry issued in total?
1,037,113 invitations to apply across 438 rounds between 31 Jan 2015 and 19 Aug 2026. The busiest calendar year was 2026, with 119,865 invitations.
What next
The record is history. Your score is not.
Eleven years of rounds show what has happened, not what happens to you. A cut-off is a number in a table until someone works out which of these doors your profile actually reaches, and what it would take to reach one more.
