Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) has revamped the Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) for its Express Entry immigration selection system. The changes, which had been expected for some time, will have a major effect on candidates for immigration to Canada through the three federal programs managed through Express Entry, namely the Federal Skilled Worker Class, the Federal Skilled Trades Class, and the Canadian Experience Class.
The new instructions on Express Entry, which were published in the government of Canada’s official Gazette, come into force on November 19, 2016.
The significant changes to job offers are:
A qualifying job offer is now worth 200 points if the offer is in an occupation contained in a Major Group 00 of the National Occupational Classification (senior managerial level position). These occupations are:
0011 Legislators
0012 Senior government managers and officials
0013 Senior managers – financial, communications and other business services
0014 Senior managers – health, education, social and community services and membership organizations
0015 Senior managers – trade, broadcasting and other services not elsewhere classified.
0016 Senior managers – construction, transportation, production and utilities
A qualifying job offer is now worth 50 points if the offer is any other qualifying offer of arranged employment.
Previously, qualifying job offers supported by a Labour Market Impact Assessment were worth 600 points under the CRS. As of November 19, there will be new ways of being awarded either 50 or 200 points without the need to obtain a LMIA (though points will continue to be awarded to individuals with a new or existing LMIA). The new regulations also allow the following individuals to be awarded points for a qualifying job offer:
Individuals with a work permit issued under an international agreement, such as the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA).
Individuals with a work permit issued under the ‘significant benefits to Canada’ criteria, such as Intra-Company Transfers.
In both above cases, the worker must have been working in Canada for at least one year and the job offer must be made by the same employer named on the work permit.

Hi There,njlevoyageur said:
Sorry I didn't understand that how come you are losing 58 crs points with a difference of only 0.5 in writing rest all being good. My calculation shows that I'l be losing 20 crs pts with a gap of 0.5 in writing. Does that means if suppose you got 7 in writing your score will jump up to 478? Please explain.
why dont you try appealing the result for writing ? it might increase score by .5njlevoyageur said:

Kindly reappear for IELTS and get atleast 7 in Writing, maintaining the other band scores. Of course your score will increase by 58 CRS points to 478 which can fetch you the ultimate thing - ITA.njlevoyageur said:
Hi everyone,
Just wandering what people's thoughts are on what effect the recent EE announcements will have on the score needed to get an ITA. Do you forsee the number of points required for an ITA increasing or descreasing from where they have been recently (i.e. around 470-480)?
I found it interesting to read somewhere recently that roughly half of the successful applicants through EE have had jobs supported by LMIAs (and therefore giving them an extra 600 points). Now that the bonus points for having a qualifying job will be only 50 points (in most cases), I would speculate that overall round scores will likely decrease from their recent levels, even with the changes announced for foreign students.
What are people's thoughts on this? (noting that anything we say is pure speculation, but hey, its fun to speculate, right?)
