What pnpscore is
Free calculators that score you against the points grids that Ontario, British Columbia, Alberta and Saskatchewan publish: Ontario, British Columbia, Alberta and Saskatchewan. Nova Scotia publishes no grid, so for it there is an eligibility check instead.
A tracker of Express Entry rounds and provincial draws, on the draws page.
Articles that read official data: draw records, published grids, job postings.
Why it exists
Provinces change their grids without notice. Many calculators keep scoring streams that have been retired. Every number here is read from the province's own document and dated.
How we verify
Each grid is encoded from the province's published page or PDF.
- Each calculator shows the date its values were verified, and the date its source was last checked.
- A monthly automatic check compares the province's page or PDF with what was verified.
- If the source changed, the checked date freezes until a person re-reads every value.
A real example: Ontario added an $80,000+ earnings band, worth 10 points, effective 5 October 2026. The check flagged it. The grid was re-verified on 12 October 2026, and Ontario's maximum rose from 130 to 132.
Draw records are read from each province's own page. Express Entry rounds are read from IRCC's published rounds file. Every dated check and article is listed on What changed.
Editorial rules
- We do not invent a cut-off or a pass mark. Where a province publishes none, we say so.
- We do not forecast draw dates or scores. Provinces give no notice, and a guess is not data.
- Scoring and eligibility are separate tests. A score is not eligibility.
- The province nominates. Only IRCC grants permanent residence.
- The 600 CRS points for a nomination apply only in the conditions IRCC sets.
If you find a mistake, tell us at Contact. A corrected page shows its updated date, and the fix is listed on What changed.
