Express Entry CRS Calculator

Estimates your CRS score under the points IRCC announced on October 16, 2026: a new labour market integration factor that adds points for Canadian work experience or a job offer in a high-wage occupation, with no LMIA needed. The tally also shows what the same profile scores under today's rules. This is an unofficial tool. Your profile in your IRCC account is what counts.

You and your family

Is a spouse or common-law partner coming with you to Canada?

No, or I'm single Yes, they're coming

Choose "No" if your partner is a Canadian citizen or permanent resident, or won't come with you. That uses the single-applicant point tables.

Your age Your age on the day you get the invitation.

Highest level of education Foreign credentials need an Educational Credential Assessment.

Post-secondary education completed in Canada Only your highest completed Canadian credential counts, up to 30 points. A bachelor's and a master's don't add together. You must have studied full-time in Canada for at least eight months of the program.

French-language points (25 or 50) come from your French scores above: NCLC 7 or higher in all four abilities.

Where these numbers come from

Point tables were checked against IRCC's pages on October 16, 2026. The high-wage list has 186 occupations: 31 at 2×, 89 at 1.5× and 66 at 1.3×, based on 2023–2025 wage data.

A higher score doesn't guarantee an invitation. Each round sets its own cut-off, and category-based rounds have their own requirements.
