There is no specific age limit to apply for Canada PR. However it is suggested that the candidate should be above 18 years of age to be considered eligible for the PR. A maximum of 12 points are awarded to individuals aged between 18 to 35 years while those aged between 35 to 47 can still apply for PR with reduced points that will affect the overall CRS score of the candidate.
Individuals over 35 years of age intending to migrate to Canada can boost their CRS score in other factors like language proficiency, educational qualification, and work experience.

CRS is also known as Comprehensive Ranking System is a point-based system that calculates the merits of the individuals. It awards scores to individuals in the Express Entry pool based on many factors like age, language proficiency, work experience, occupation, and educational qualification. The total score issued to each individual is known as the CRS Score.
Age is one of the most critical factors in the CRS score grid. The table below mentions the age and the points allotted for individuals with and without partners.
