Through this piece, we will look in detail as to what are the two-point calculators- 

What is the CRS point calculator system?

The CRS point calculator system is designed to help calculate the Score of the candidates who have entered the Express Entry pool. The applicants are assessed as per the age, language, education, work experience, and adaptability. These applicant's points are calculated out of 1200, and out of these, 600 points are for the Human Core capital and skills transferability while the other 600 for the bonus points. These bonus points are for those appellants who have received the Provincial Nomination, have an arranged employment, etc.; for different additional aspects, the points that are allocated are different. For PNP, the additional Score provided is 600, but for arranged employment, the additional Score is 200.

What is the Express Entry - Federal Skilled Workers Program (FSWP)?

The Federal Skilled Workers Program (FSWP) is a subcategory for the Express Entry program. It is the program for those applicants who have never been to Canada before. The minimum required Score for selection under this program is 67 points out of 100. The point score is calculated as per the age, language, education, work experience, and adaptability. The Canadian government uses the National Occupation Classification (NOC) to categorize jobs in Canada.

The Score of 67 points make the appellant eligible, and to score these points, the appellant should have the following parameters –

· The candidate needs to be of age between 18 to 35 years.

· The applicant should have a higher education than a bachelor's degree.

· The applicant needs to have work experience of more than five years.

· The candidate should try and have a good IELTS score.

· Having networks and attaining a job offer can help the appellant have points for arranged employment.

There are ways through which the score can be improved but the applicant should always move ahead with a plan of action. Canada Government has these tools to help evaluate the appellant's credentials with the point calculation. The candidate can use these tools to pre-assess their application and determine the chances of their selection. Not all the online calculators for immigration will provide accurate scores to the candidates; there might be a technical glitch or other errors due to which the CRS score could be wrongly calculated in some cases. In such a case, it is best if the appellant takes the help of a reliable and trusted immigration consultancy service and provides an adequate result for the selection of the applicant.
