@stirredo Personally I would not take any chances with soft landing or PRTD. Being rejected of some country’s equivalent of PRTD is one critical reason that I came to this forum (or my 2nd immigration process) in the first place. (I did find wonderful people and memes here, but still)
I have multiple close family members in that country. And I was sponsoring my spouse to get PR there. Yet officers reviewing my PRTD-equivalent said I didn’t intend to live there lol. Oh wow.
Alas, that was the past. The moral is don’t take these chances unless you absolutely have to. I took it to be with my spouse and got screwed by covid. A certificate IMO is never worth it, be it CPA or AWS or PMP. Nobel Prize, now we are talking
