Improve Your CRS Score
The Express Entry process is a pivotal route for those seeking to immigrate to Canada. Eligible candidates have the opportunity to create an online Express Entry profile with Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship Canada, potentially leading to an Invitation to Apply (ITA). Effectively presenting your qualifications within your Express Entry profile can raise your Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) scores, increasing your chances of becoming a permanent resident in Canada.
Benefits of Improving Your CRS Score:
By actively enhancing your CRS score, you significantly boost your chances of receiving an ITA. Even a minor point increase can yield substantial advantages, given the competitive nature of the Express Entry process.
Furthermore, there are strategies to make substantial improvements in your CRS score, securing a place among the highest-ranked candidates for permanent residency programs. Continuously updating and completing your profile helps enhance CRS scores, as the Comprehensive Ranking System operates dynamically.
Methods to Increase Your CRS Score
Enhancing language proficiency: Combining language skills with other factors like post-secondary education can raise your score. Having a spouse or common-law partner can also positively impact your language score.
Education: A history of education that includes both international and Canadian studies, along with additional post-secondary credentials, can enhance your CRS score. Earning further qualifications, such as an additional degree, can further boost your score.
Work experience: Gaining more work experience or meticulously documenting your existing work experience can result in a higher score.
Numerous pathways exist to elevate your CRS score and qualify for an ITA through the Express Entry process. Crafting an exceptional Express Entry profile requires the guidance of an experienced immigration consultant like Nexus Migration. Continue reading for more valuable insights.
Ensuring accuracy of eligibility points declarations
Ensuring the accuracy of your eligibility point declarations is crucial when building your Express Entry profile. Many candidates often miss out on certain CRS points, even when they qualify for them. By reviewing and accurately declaring valid eligibility points, you can potentially boost your CRS scores:
Include All Educational Credentials:Even if Canadian education credentials and Educational Credential Assessment aren’t mandatory for the Canadian Experience Class or Federal Skilled Trades Class, it’s essential to declare all relevant credentials. This allows you to claim 150 points for education and an extra 50 points for language proficiency or Canadian education.
Leverage Sibling Ties in Canada: Demonstrating a sibling relationship with a permanent resident in Canada, whether through blood ties, marriage, or adoption, can earn you 15 points in the CRS score.
Maximize Language Proficiency Points: The Comprehensive Ranking System rewards points for both English and French proficiency. Undergoing approved language tests in both languages can help you secure the highest possible scores in this category.
Long-Term Strategies for Improving CRS Scores:
For candidates committed to using the Express Entry system for Canadian immigration, considering long-term strategies can enhance your chances of receiving an Invitation to Apply:
Obtain a Provincial Nomination Certificate: Many provinces offer Express Entry-aligned streams that grant nomination certificates, contributing a substantial 600 CRS points to your score.
Accumulate Additional Work Experience: If you’re working outside Canada, extending your work experience can boost your score, particularly when your current experience is less than three years. Ongoing work experience in Canada not only maintains your legal status but also earns extra points.
Short-Term Strategies for Improving CRS Scores:
If you aim to enhance your CRS score in a matter of weeks, consider the following options-
Improve Language Proficiency:
You can earn up to 260 points as an individual candidate (or 270 CRS points for a couple) through language ability. Enhancing your language proficiency by retaking an approved language test can lead to a significant score increase. Achieving CLB 9 in all language abilities will result in higher skill transferability factors.
