35. What is the Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) and how does it work?

 

Category:  Comprehensive Ranking System

 

 

The CRS is the new system we will use to assess and score Express Entry candidates. It has been created based on extensive research on the best predictors of economic success for newcomers to Canada.

The CRS will include factors such as:

• skills;
• work experience;
• language ability;
• education; and
• other factors that we know help immigrants prosper once in Canada.

Using the information provided in the candidate’s profile, the CRS will set the candidate’s score and rank within the Express Entry pool at any given time. Note that a candidate’s rank will change regularly, while their score will only change when they update their profile information.

Candidates with the highest scores in the pool will be issued an Invitation to Apply (ITA). Candidates will be awarded points for:

• a job offer;
• a provincial/territorial nomination; and
• skills and experience factors that contribute to success in Canada.

Apply for your assessment under the Canadian Express entry program.
