If you've considered seeking to immigrate to Canada, you've certainly heard or read about the Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) and the CRS cut-off scores for Canada Express Entry. The immigration application process can be complicated, and knowing how to increase your chances of success the first time around is crucial!
We've answered
the top frequently asked questions concerning the Comprehensive Ranking System
to show you how easy it may be to improve your CRS score for the next Express
Entry draw!
What is the Comprehensive Ranking
System in Canada?
Canada rates your
Express Entry profile using the Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS). It aids
Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) in determining if you are
qualified to seek for permanent residence as a highly to semi-skilled worker.
It also aids the IRCC in selecting specific candidates who will be able to
transition to a new life in Canada and settle comfortably.
How does the Comprehensive Ranking
System work?
Since 2015,
Canada's Express Entry system has been the most popular immigration option. The
Federal Skilled Worker Program (FSWP), Federal Skilled Trade Program (FSTP),
and the Canadian Experience Class are the three immigration programs it oversees
(CEC). You will be ranked according to the Comprehensive Ranking System when
constructing your Express Entry Profile (CRS). After adding up your scores, you
will be given a CRS score out of a possible 1,200.
After that, your
profile will be included into a draw pool with the profiles of other
applicants. The IRCC will announce the cut-off score based on the average of
all CRS scores in that particular draw. This shows who will be invited to apply
for permanent residency and who will not. The IRCC will give you an invitation
to apply for Permanent Residency (PR) in Canada if your CRS score is equal to
or higher than the CRS cut-off level.
Can you improve your CRS score?
Yes. There are
other options, such as boosting your language exam scores, acquiring additional
work experience, applying with a spouse, and so on. Let's take a look at a few
of the more common methods.
Retaking your
language test is the first, and certainly one of the easiest and quickest ways
to increase your CRS score. You can do this in one of two ways: retake your
first test or enrol in a language course. You might get an extra 22 points if
you retake your test.
Getting more job
experience is the next best strategy to increase your CRS points. Although work
experience is not required to be qualified for Canada's Express Entry system,
it can help you earn the coveted ITA for permanent residency in Canada.
