What changed in the CRS on 3 November 2026
Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) added a Labour Market Integration factor to the Comprehensive Ranking System. It scores Canadian work experience and job offers together. You get points for one option only: whichever is higher.
Option 1: Canadian work experience, plus a high-wage bonus
Work-length points are the same as before. A bonus is added if you have at least 12 months (1,560 hours) of Canadian work in an occupation IRCC lists as high-wage.
| Canadian work | With spouse | Without spouse |
|---|---|---|
| 1 year | 35 | 40 |
| 2 years | 46 | 53 |
| 3 years | 56 | 64 |
| 4 years | 63 | 72 |
| 5 years or more | 70 | 80 |
| Occupation median wage vs average median wage | High-wage bonus |
|---|---|
| At least 1.3x | 20 |
| At least 1.5x | 40 |
| At least 2x | 70 |
Option 2: a job offer in a high-wage occupation
| Occupation median wage vs average median wage | Job-offer points |
|---|---|
| At least 1.3x | 50 |
| At least 1.5x | 70 |
| At least 2x | 100 |
The factor is worth up to 150 points without a spouse and up to 140 with one. A job offer no longer needs a Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA), and having one adds no extra points. An officer still checks that the offer is genuine.
What did not change
- Age, education and language points.
- Skill transferability, which still uses plain years of Canadian work, not the high-wage rules.
- Additional points: provincial nomination (600), French ability, Canadian study and a sibling in Canada.
IRCC said it would recalculate existing profiles over up to two weeks and pause invitation rounds while it does. Check IRCC’s Express Entry changes page and the rounds of invitations for current cut-off scores.
