Additional Points
Do you have a valid job offer?
A job offer is no longer worth bonus CRS points under Express Entry, but it can still support your eligibility under the Federal Skilled Worker Program, Federal Skilled Trades Program, or certain provincial nomination streams. Let us know if you have one, and its occupation — we'll factor it into your eligibility review.
A valid job offer must be:
- full-time
- in a skilled job under TEER 0, 1, 2, or 3
- supported by a Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA), or exempt from needing one
- for at least one year from the time you become a permanent resident
A job offer isn’t valid if your employer is:
- an embassy, high commission or consulate in Canada or
- on the list of ineligible employers.
Whether an offer is valid also depends on other factors specific to your case. See a full list of criteria for valid job offers.
