The Express Entry system changed in 2026 with the introduction of new category-based selection categories and updated eligibility rules. This guide explains the new Express Entry categories, recent CRS score trends, the one-year work experience requirement, and what these changes mean for anyone planning to apply for Canadian permanent residence through Express Entry.

Canada is proposing major changes to Express Entry by replacing current programs with a single federal high-skilled immigration class. While still under consultation, these reforms are expected to make the system more accessible by lowering entry barriers and focusing selection on real labour market outcomes, such as work experience and higher-paying job opportunities. For many candidates, this could increase their chances of qualifying and competing for permanent residence in Canada.
