🇨🇦 MAJOR EXPRESS ENTRY UPDATE! 🇨🇦

📢 New CRS point rules expected to take effect November 3, 2026!

Canada is introducing changes that could create new opportunities for eligible Express Entry candidates to improve their Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) scores.

Here’s what applicants need to know! 👇

💼 1. Additional Points for High-Wage Canadian Work Experience

Eligible candidates may receive additional CRS points based on their wage level:

🔹 70 points — Wages at least 2 times the median wage
🔹 40 points — Wages at least 1.5 times the median wage
🔹 20 points — Wages at least 1.3 times the median wage

Generally, at least 12 months of eligible Canadian work experience is required.

📄 2. More Points for Qualifying High-Wage Job Offers

Eligible job offers may provide additional CRS points based on the offered wage:

🔹 100 points — At least 2 times the median wage
🔹 70 points — At least 1.5 times the median wage
🔹 50 points — At least 1.3 times the median wage

⚠️ Not every job offer qualifies. IRCC’s eligibility requirements must be met.

✅ 3. LMIA Requirement Changes

Under the proposed changes described in this update, an LMIA may no longer be required for qualifying job-offer CRS points starting November 3, 2026. Certain applicants under the Federal Skilled Worker Program and Federal Skilled Trades Program may also benefit from a temporary public policy, subject to its conditions.

🔄 4. Can You Claim Both Types of Points?

No. If you qualify under both options, you would receive points under the option that provides the greater benefit, rather than combining the two.

🎯 5. Do Extra CRS Points Guarantee Permanent Residence?

No. A higher CRS score may improve your ranking, but an Invitation to Apply (ITA) depends on the applicable draw, its cut-off score, and all relevant eligibility requirements.

📌 6. What Should You Do Now?

✔️ Review your Express Entry profile.
✔️ Check whether your Canadian work experience meets the applicable criteria.
✔️ Assess your job offer and wage level.
✔️ Ensure all information in your profile is accurate and up to date.
