TEF for CRS score

[Ankit1616]

Hi,
I went through CRS calculator tool, and i was confused with CRS score for SECOND OFFICIAL LANGUAGE and ADDITIONAL POINTS FACTOR

For CLB 7 in TEF, It gave 3 points for each (S,W,R,L)
Total : 12 points

Also it gave 30 points at the very end for “ADDITIONAL POINTS”.

so, Total points : 42 ( 12 + 30).
for TEF.

I was confused with this , because all i knew so far was ,
24 points maximum for SECOND OFFICIAL LANGUAGE.

Thanks in advance .

Hi,

It is because of having French knowledge. If you have score of CLB 5 above in English and French score as secondary language, you would be awarded 30 points as additional. It is just like gift of having French knowledge.

It is clearly stated in the section D.Additional Points from the below path,

Hi,

Yes, you can get 3 points for B 2 CLB 7 level in French, but it doesn't stop there.

C1 gives 4 points and it can continue increasing to 6 points maximum at the advanced C2 level.

You calculated 3 points x 4 skill areas to get 12 points + 30 points = 42 points

But 6 points X 4 skill areas (RLWS) = makes the 24 points maximum.

So, if you are single or relocating without a spouse, plus if you have maxed out your french at C2 level, that will be 24 points + the extra 30 points for being bilingual i.e. French CLB 7 upwards + IELTS CLB 5 upwards (takes effort, not really a gift = 54 points in total.

If you are married = 22 points maximum + 30 (instead of 24 points).

Others knowledgeable may throw more light on this...

All the best.
