Questions

Is this the official IRCC calculator?

No — this is an estimate built from the public CRS criteria on canada.ca. IRCC's own tool is the final word for your profile.

Why is my score lower than I expected?

Skill-transferability combinations are capped (100 total) and each sub-factor at 50 — strong single factors alone don't stack beyond the caps.

Do job offers still give points?

Since March 2025, arranged-employment points were removed (50/200). A proposal to reintroduce them for high-wage occupations is under consultation but not in force.
