Latest Express Entry Draw 2024
Ways to improve points in CRS Score Calculator
There are several ways to improve your points in the CRS score calculator - and increase your chances of receiving an Invitation to Apply (ITA) in the next Express Entry draw are listed below.
Improve your language proficiency score
If you haven’t already achieved a high score in your language proficiency exam, you can retake the exam to boost your CRS score. For instance, if you secure CLB Level 9 in the language test, you can add a maximum of 136 points to your final score. Similarly, appearing in a French language test can add another maximum of 24 points to the CRS Score Calculator.
Receive a Provincial Nomination (PN)
If you manage to receive an ITA from any one of the 13 provinces and territories in Canada, you will be awarded 600 extra points to your profile in Express Entry. A provincial nomination effectively guarantees an invitation to apply for Canada PR. Some of the easiest Provincial Nominee Programs (PNPs) in Canada to apply for a nomination include Saskatchewan’s International Skilled Worker, Alberta’s Express Entry Stream, and Ontario’s Human Capital Priorities Stream.
Get an LMIA Approved job offer
If you get a valid job offer from a Canadian employer, you can receive an additional 200 points to your final CRS score. But, your job offer must be LMIA (Labor Market Impact Assessment) approved. While it isn't easy to find a job in Canada, it is also not impossible.
Study experience in Canada
There were a total of 807,750 study permit holders in higher education by 2022 year-end. The Canadian education system has for a long time - proven to be the best among the study-abroad destinations in the world. You can get 15 to 30 CRS points for a Canadian education credential gained in Canada. Many newcomers choose to apply for a Post-Graduate Work Permit (PGWP) after studying in Canada for a while, which lets them gain Canadian work experience - which is a stepping stone for Canada PR.
Include Common-Law Partner/ Spouse
Immigrating to Canada your Common-law Partner or Spouse in the application will fetch you extra points. The language proficiency of the Common-law Partner or Spouse can get a maximum of 20 points, while their work experience and education in Canada will fetch them 10 additional points individually. In total, you can add a maximum of 40 extra points to your final CRS score.
Work experience in Canada
You can add a maximum of 150 points to your CRS score if you have documented full-time work experience in Canada and abroad. This will be points for foreign work experience + Canadian work experience. Check out the Canada occupation in-demand list 2024 to find a job that best matches your work experience.
