Hello,

I am on PGWP status and will complete one year of canadian work experience in October 2022. My CRS would be 523 but after changing martial status to married, it drops to 501 with spouse bachelor's degree and without her IELTS score.

Should I compulsarily ask my spouse to give IELTS exam or would I be able to get ITA without it?

Kindl, Please suggest

Spouse IELTS is not required. It is optional.

When calculating your points, make sure you are not including the 50 points for having a job offer (unless you have an approved LMIA from your employer).

Thanks a lot ! I am on PGWP status and I don't have LMIA for my job. Hence, I have excluded it
