Hi kzehra. First, I hope some seniors respond to you, however in the mean time:

I'm curious if you need any of your husbands points to qualify i.e. are you getting 67 points just by yourself. If yes, then go ahead and apply. Attach to your application an Addendum i.e. a letter which is an addition to a form explaining that your husband is a government employee, what exactly he does, and most importantly, explaining that you are not claiming any points from his occupation.

I think it would be better to apply along with your husband, because once you get to Canada, it would be difficult to bring your husband in later. If you already have the points, you only are gambling with the additional application fee, and need to show additional funds.

I personally think that the no objection certificate is only if you have kids, and your husband is not an applicant. If you don't have kids, you can apply without your husband.
 
I was looking at the NOC Matrix at: http://www5.hrsdc.gc.ca/NOC/English/NOC/2011/html/Matrix.html

On that page, look under: Major Group 41 OR you can go to this page: http://www5.hrsdc.gc.ca/noc/english/noc/2011/QuickSearch.aspx?val65=* and look under: 041 Managers in public administration , 042 Managers in education and social and community services 043 Managers in public protection services

Does your husband fit under any of those categories? By the way if you describe what your husband does, someone might be able to help you.

Is governtment teacher a civil servant or no?
Thank you

No, that would be a teacher. However a government official working in the education department or school board would be a civil servant depending on the country.
