Understanding CRS

What is the CRS Score?

The Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) is a points-based system used to assess and score your Express Entry profile. The higher your score, the better your chances of receiving an Invitation to Apply (ITA) for permanent residence.

Your score is calculated based on your age, education, language ability, Canadian work experience, and other factors. Scores range from 0 to 1,200.
