  an intensive Comprehensive Ranking System. After
  a profile is filed in the Express Entry pool, the
  CRS points calculator tool uses various criteria
  to determine the candidates potential for Canada
  skilled immigration, and allocates corresponding
  points out of 1200.

Core / Human Capital Factors

• These factors examine the applicants ability to
  contribute to the Canadian economy. Their age,
  education, language skills and Canadian work
  experience (if any) is taken into consideration
  at this stage. An applicant who wishes to migrate
  with an accompanying spouse or common-law-partner
  may avail a maximum of 460 points, while
  individual applicants can receive up to 500
  points.

Spouse or Common-Law-Partner Factors

• If the spouse or common-law-partner will be
  accompanying the candidate to Canada, as many as
  40 points can be added to the CRS score. Points
  are awarded based on the spouses Canadian work
  experience (if any), education and language
  skills.

5
Skills Transferability Factors

• This parameter assesses if the skills and
  experience of the aspirant will translate to the
  Canadian labour market. The applicants language
  skills and/or Canadian work experience in
  combination with their education and/or work
  experience (outside Canada) or a certificate of
  qualification in a trade occupation can fetch
  up to 100 points.

Additional Points

• No more than 600 surplus points may be claimed if
  the applicant has
• A sibling who is a citizen or permanent resident
  of Canada
• French language skills
• Completed a post-secondary academic qualification
  in Canada
• A valid job offer from a Canadian employer
• Nomination from a Canadian province or territory

• The CRS points calculator allocates a score based
  on the afore-mentioned factors. This score
  determines the rank of the applicants profile in
  the pool. Only the highest-ranking profiles are
  invited to apply for permanent residence by
  Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada.
• A genuine Canada immigration consultant will
  conduct this evaluation before filing an
  Expression of Interest, to ascertain the chances
  for success in the process.
