Canada's Express Entry system manages applications for several economic-immigration programs. Candidates are ranked using the Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS), and the highest-scoring profiles are invited to apply for permanent residency.
What makes up your CRS score?
- Core human capital: age, education, language ability and work experience.
- Spouse factors, if applicable.
- Skill transferability: combinations of education, experience and language.
- Additional points: provincial nomination, a job offer, or Canadian study/experience.
How to improve your score
Small improvements can lift you above the cut-off. Retaking a language test for a higher band, completing an additional credential assessment, or gaining more skilled experience all help. A provincial nomination adds a decisive 600 points.
