Which one are you talking about?

The one on the CIC website is accurate as long as your responses are accurate.

Has been asked many times before, btw. Please run a search next time.

The answers are correct but i feel the questions themselves are not too precise,for example no question about me having kids or not?not detailed no of the no of years experience,no mentioningg of the profession,etx

Again, still not clear which one you are talking about.

This is the official CRS one:
http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/crs-tool.asp

Number of kids are irrelevant for CRS scores, as is your profession as long as it is in NOC 0, A or B.

For this tool, you have to sum up the years of experience yourself, whereas in the actual profile, it is done automatically based on you listing all your jobs. This is a potential source of discrepancy if you don't exactly understand how years of experience are calculated.

Also be aware that this tool only calculates your CRS score. It cannot make an assessment about whether or not you meet the eligibility criteria for the various immigration programs. You need to use the come to Canada tool for that.

Thanks
 
I've a question on CRS tool on official CIC website. When you are filling the points for Age, IELTS score, etc.... then there comes point 6- which request you to fill the work experience (number of years).

My question is, number of years being asked is Canadian experience or Foreign experience because without filling that particular point, it is impossible to get above CRS point 400.

FYI, I've 5 years of international experience in sales and business development.

Anyone who has EE profile, please advise.

Cheers and thanks.

The question specifically is broken in two parts. The first is for Canadian experience and the second part is for Foreign experience.

Is this the link you used?

How much you score among all the factors is also dependent on language skills and transferability factors which are a combination of your work experience and your language scores.

The assumption that it is not possible to cross 400 points is incorrect.
 
Hi Histronics
I got IQAS ECA plus IELTS- 6.5 with 5 years foreign work experience. Then What will my CRS points be?

When I filled CRS tool as per my information, I'm getting less than 400?

Thnks.

Impossible for me to calculate as I don't have your complete info. Age has a lot of points. So does transferability. You share the screenshot here and maybe I can pinpoint.
 
Hi Histronics
I'm single and 33.
I've Bachelors degree.

Skill transferability factors
Education
A) Official Language proficiency and education = 13
B) Canadian work experience and education = 0
Subtotal = 13

Foreign work experience
A) Official Language proficiency and foreign work experience = 25
B) Canadian and foreign work experience = 0
Subtotal = 25

Certificate of qualification = 0

Subtotal Skill transferability factors = 38

Comprehensive Ranking System formu
la
Subtotal Core/Human capital + Spouse factors + Skill transferability = 328

Provincial nomination = 0

Job offer = 0

Study in Canada = 0

Sibling in Canada = 0


French-language skills = 0

Subtotal Additional points = 0

Grand total = 328

So what do you think? Am I missing something?
 
Your IELTS score is missing from this. What did you score in each section? In all likelihood, you need to improve your IELTS score to atleast 8 7 7 7 to get the maximum points for language and skill transferability.
 
My IELTS is L-7, S-7, W-6, R-6, Overall band score is 6.5.

Considering my IELTS score and above info, what do you think my score should be?
 
Even if I get a good score in IELTS, it is not making a big difference. I tried putting put 7 for each band, still not crossing 400 mark.

High IELTS score is good for EE eligibility, I think.

You need to work on your IELTS scores and get to atleast 8 7 7 7 to be able to get the most points you can.

Per your current info, the 328 points that the CRS calculator is giving you appears correct.
 
I'm working on my IELTS.

I tried putting 8 7 7 7 and just crossed 400 mark, 410 to be precise. Considering the cut-off usually is around 450 or above, it is really difficult to get into the pool.

What do you suggest?
