Support CRSPoint
CRSPoint is an independent publication. No advertising network, no sponsored verdicts, no investor telling us what to write about Canadian immigration. It is read by people making decisions that cost them years of their life, and we would like to keep it that way.
If the site has been useful to you, you can leave a voluntary contribution. It keeps the guides updated when IRCC changes the rules, and it pays for the hours that go into checking a single paragraph against the regulations.
Choose an amount:
Or enter any other amount on the payment page. Payment is handled by Stripe — one-off, no subscription, no account.
Voluntary contribution with no counterpart. It is not a tax-deductible donation: no tax receipt is issued, because CRSPoint is published by a commercial company and not by a non-profit organisation. It is not payment for immigration advice, which we do not provide.
What this is
A voluntary contribution towards editorial work, with no counterpart. You are not buying a product, a service, or a piece of advice. Nothing changes on the site for you as a result, and no obligation of any kind is created in either direction.
What this is not
It is not a donation in the tax sense, and no tax receipt is issued. CRSPoint is published by DRIVE & DEAL CONSULTING, a commercial company. Under French law only non-profit organisations can issue the receipt that gives a private individual a tax reduction, so a contribution here gives you no tax advantage. We would rather say that plainly than let you discover it at filing time.
No VAT is charged on a contribution like this, because it is a payment without a counterpart and therefore falls outside the scope of VAT (BOI-TVA-BASE-10-10-50). It is, however, revenue for the company on the French side. That is our problem, not yours.
It is also not payment for immigration advice. We do not assess eligibility, recommend a route for your circumstances, or represent anyone before IRCC. If that is what you need, use the free orientation call and we will point you to a licensed professional.
Prefer to buy something instead?
Contributions are generous; purchases are useful. The guides shop has the field guide, the document checklist, the CRS workbook and the complete toolkit — all of them written to be used, not skimmed.
Other ways to help that cost nothing
- Share one article with someone who is at the start of the process.
- Tell us when something on the site is out of date — the corrections policy explains how.
- Write to contact@crspoint.com if you spot a rule we have got wrong. That is worth more than money.
Business contributions
If you are a company rather than an individual, a payment without counterpart may be treated as sponsorship or as taxable income on your side. Talk to your accountant before sending anything. We do not provide invoices designed to create a tax advantage.
