Canada Express Entry CRS: how graduates hit 470+
Education, work experience, language, and provincial nomination — the CRS math for international students.
Earthlink Editorial • 14 April 2026 • 9 min read
Baseline for a single 25-year-old with a Canadian master's, CLB 9, and 1 year of Canadian work experience: around 470–490. Add a spouse and it drops slightly; add a PNP nomination and it jumps by 600.
Category-based draws in tech, healthcare, and French language now clear at 430–470 — often below the general draw cutoff.
