Common questions
What is a good CRS score?
It depends on the draw. General draws have needed higher scores than category-based draws (French, healthcare, trades and others). Compare your score with recent draws for the category you qualify for.
How can I increase my CRS score?
The biggest gains usually come from a higher English result (CLB 9 or more), adding French, a provincial nomination (600 points), more Canadian work experience or a completed further qualification.
Does a job offer still give CRS points?
No. IRCC removed the extra points for arranged employment in March 2025. A job offer can still help with some provincial programs.
