What we do
CRS Score Calculate is an independent website. We make free tools that turn Canada's immigration points rules into clear answers.
Express Entry is built on tables: points for age, education, language, work and more. The rules are public, but they are spread across several government pages and they change. Our job is to keep one accurate, easy-to-use set of calculators that always reflects the rules in force today, and to explain those rules in plain language.
How we work
- We start from the official source. Every points value comes from pages published by Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) on Canada.ca. We link to them on every page.
- We test the maths. The CRS scoring engine is checked against a second, independently written version of the rules on tens of thousands of generated profiles before any update goes live.
- We date our reviews. Each page shows when it was last reviewed. When IRCC changes a rule, we update the calculators and say what changed.
- We respect your privacy. Calculations run in your browser. We do not ask you to create an account and we do not collect your answers.
Our editorial policy describes this process in detail.
What we are not
We are not the Government of Canada, and we are not affiliated with or endorsed by IRCC. We are not immigration consultants or lawyers, and nothing on this site is immigration or legal advice. For advice about your own case, speak to a Regulated Canadian Immigration Consultant (RCIC) listed with the College of Immigration and Citizenship Consultants, or to a Canadian immigration lawyer.
How the site is funded
The calculators are free. We pay for the site with advertising, which is clearly labelled. Advertisers have no influence over our calculators or our content.
