The CRS Calculator Tool will let you know, depending on your answers, how much Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) points you could claim in the Express Entry pool.
1. What is Express Entry?
Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) uses the Express Entry system to select the desired candidates to apply for permanent residence.
Three federal programs go through the Express Entry system: the Federal Skilled Workers (FSW) program, the Federal Skilled Trades (FST) program, and the Canadian Experience Class (CEC). You need to be eligible to one of these programs to be able to enter the Express Entry pool of candidates, where each candidate is assigned a CRS score.

2. What's a CRS score?
A Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) score is assigned to each candidate, depending on a number of factors, including age, level of education, language proficiency, work experience, etc.
Beware that calculating your CRS points does not mean you are eligible to one of the three programs of Express Entry. You will need to make sure you are eligible to one of the three programs before. You see the eligibility criteria of each federal program here.
To be able to know your exact CRS score, you will need to have your language test results, and your Educational Credential Assessment (ECA) if your degree is not Canadian. If you do not have these, you can still try and see how many CRS points you can claim for other factors.
You can either use our CRS Calculator Tool below, or calculate the score by yourself using the point tables provided here.
