A minimum of 67 points for a Canada PR can be scored via various eligibility factors. The application will be evaluated using a points-based system that comprise of the six following factors –

Factor 1: Age

Factor 2: Education

Factor 3: Experience

Factor 4: Language Skills

Factor 5: Arranged Employment in Canada [LMIA Approved]

Factor 6: Adaptability

 

Age – Maximum 12 points

Points will be assigned to the candidates based on age, with a maximum of 12 points that can be awarded to the candidates. The score calculation based on age is done from the date of application submission.

Education – Maximum 25 points

A maximum of 25 immigration points will be assigned to candidates based on their educational qualifications. An ECA Report from an authorized agency is mandatory for overseas education. An ECA (Educational Credential Assessment) Report testifies if your overseas education levels are equivalent to the Canadian education standards.

Experience – Maximum 15 points

The Express Entry system also allots points based on work experience. Candidates are assigned points based on the years they have worked full-time, with a minimum of 30 hours per week. Any part-time work that is equivalent to the above line is also qualifiable. This experience factor can get you a maximum of 15 points.

Language skills – Maximum 28 points

Adaptability – Maximum 10 points

How to improve your CRS Score?

CRS scores can always be improved, as the Express Entry Draws are regularly held. A high CRS score will boost your chances of acquiring an ITA (Invitation to Apply) for the PR.

Here are a few tips you can implement to improve your CRS score:

Increase your language score: Scoring well in English language tests like IELTS, PTE, etc., can help increase the CRS score. For example, candidates who score a CLB of 9 can get a maximum of 136 points to add to their CRS score. Candidates who appear for a French language test can also score up to 74 points.

Provincial Nominee Program (PNP): 600 points are added to the Express Entry profiles of candidates who receive an ITA (Invitation to Apply).  

Employment offer [LMIA Approved]: 200 points are allotted to candidates who receive an employment offer that is LMIA-recognized and from a registered Canadian employer.

Education in Canada: Candidates who complete a recognized diploma or degree in Canada can receive up to 30 points.   

Dependents in the Application: Candidates who apply for the visa with their spouse can receive additional points. 20 points will be given for the language proficiency factor, while work experience and educational factor can get you 10 points each, totaling 40 points.

Work experience in Canada: Candidates with full-time work experience of less than three years and who wish to continue their employment can get up to 153 CRS points.

"@type": "Answer",
"text": "Thanks to the easy migration process that is available for Canada. The easiest way to get to Canada is based on the eligibility requirements that are satisfied by the applicant. Moreover, I also depend on individual goals and priorities.
Canada has three easiest Permanent Residency (PR) visa processes based on Canada’s labor market requirements.
Express Entry Program
Provincial Nominee Program (PNP)
Business Investor program
Express Entry Program: This program was introduced in 2015, and by now, it has become one of the popular immigration programs for PR. It allows skilled workers to migrate to Canada in just six months only.
Canada evaluates the candidates through the point-based system by using the Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) tool. This tool calculates the candidate’s score based on the factors of age, work experience, language competency, education, etc.
The three subcategories for immigration to Canada under Express Entry System
Federal Skilled Workers Program (FSWP)
Federal Skilled Trades Program (FSTP)
Canadian Experience Program (CEC)
Provincial Nominee Program (PNP): The provincial nominee program is for those unable to satisfy the requirements set for express entry. The applicants with a desirable score are considered to immigrate and obtain a Canada PR visa. Canada PNP is one of the easiest ways to immigrate. Canada permits skilled people to its provinces based on the in-demand occupation and labor market requirements and nominates them to immigrate.
Business investor program: if you have money and can invest in Canada, then you can opt for this pathway. This route best suits business owners and managers in foreign countries looking to set up a business in Canada. The applicant either invests through a start-up or provincial business immigration programs."
