Canada PR Points Calculator (67 Points)

Last updated: October 26, 2026

Canada's PR points system has two different scores. This Canada PR points calculator checks the first one: the 67 out of 100 points you need to qualify for the Federal Skilled Worker Program (FSW). If you pass, your CRS score (out of 1,200) then decides your rank in Express Entry.

67 points vs CRS score: the 67-point grid is a pass/fail eligibility test for FSW only. The CRS score ranks every Express Entry candidate (FSW, CEC and FST), and IRCC invites the highest scores in each draw. You need 67 to enter as an FSW candidate, but it's your CRS score that gets you invited. Calculate your CRS score →
