Use our free CRS Calculator to estimate your Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) score for Canada’s Express Entry immigration program. The CRS is a points-based system used by IRCC to rank candidates in the Express Entry pool.
Your CRS score determines your ranking. Candidates with the highest scores receive an Invitation to Apply (ITA) for Canadian permanent residence during regular Express Entry draws.
How the CRS Score Works
The CRS awards points across four categories: Core Human Capital Factors (age, education, language, Canadian work experience), Spouse/Partner Factors, Skill Transferability (combinations of education, experience, and language), and Additional Points (provincial nominations, Canadian education, job offers, French skills, siblings in Canada). The maximum score is 1,200 points.
A. Core / Human Capital Factors
First Official Language (CLB Level per Skill)
Enter your CLB level for each of the 4 language skills. Use the CLB Converter tool if you need to convert your IELTS/CELPIP/TEF/TCF scores.
Second Official Language (CLB Level per Skill)
Spouse / Partner Factors
Since you indicated you have a spouse or common-law partner, their qualifications also contribute to your CRS score (up to 40 additional points).
