Introduction
Are you an African professional looking to increase your chances of securing permanent residency in Canada through the Express Entry system? EmpireFly Immigration Law Firm is here to help you maximize your Express Entry Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) score, potentially earning you up to 200 additional points. Discover how strategic actions can significantly enhance your Express Entry profile and improve your chances of receiving an Invitation to Apply (ITA) for Canadian permanent residency.
Understanding the Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS)
The Express Entry system uses the Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) to assess and rank candidates based on various factors, including age, education, work experience, language proficiency, and adaptability. The higher your CRS score, the better your chances of receiving an ITA.
How to Claim 200 Extra Points
1. Provincial Nominee Program (PNP)
– Overview: The PNP allows Canadian provinces and territories to nominate individuals for permanent residency based on their skills, work experience, and ability to contribute to the local economy.
– Additional Points: Receiving a nomination from a province or territory can add 600 points to your CRS score, effectively guaranteeing an ITA. This is particularly beneficial for candidates who may score less on other factors but have skills in demand in specific regions.
2. Arranged Employment
– Overview: A valid job offer from a Canadian employer can significantly boost your CRS score.
– Additional Points: Depending on the type of job offer, you can receive 50 to 200 additional points. Senior managerial positions can earn 200 points, while other skilled job offers typically provide 50 points.
3. French Language Proficiency
– Overview: Canada values bilingualism, and French language skills can earn additional points.
– Additional Points: A high score in French language proficiency tests like the TEF Canada or TCF Canada can add up to 50 points to your CRS score, even if French is not your primary language.
4. Sibling in Canada
– Overview: If you have a sibling who is a citizen or permanent resident of Canada, you can claim additional points.
– Additional Points: Having a sibling in Canada can add 15 points to your CRS score. While less substantial than other factors, every moment counts in the competitive Express Entry pool.
5. Post-Secondary Education in Canada
– Overview: Completing a post-secondary education program in Canada can increase your CRS score.
– Additional Points: Canadian education can add up to 30 points to your CRS score. This option is ideal for international students who have studied in Canada and wish to remain permanently.
