Hi all , Your advice and your honest opinion will be highly appreciated. I am a 40 year old mother with 2 kids aged 7and 9 years . I have not worked since the past 9 years, but prior to that I was an interior decorator with a work experience of 8 years . I have completed my WES accreditation. I have a degree of 4years in Fine arts (textile design ). I would like to know the following: 1.has anyone been in a similar situation and managed to get the invite . What are my chances? 2. how to increase my points as I have lost a lot due to age and lack of work experience in the past 10 years . 3. Is there any other ways to get the invitation that is a sure shot way . Pls note my husband (43 years ) who is an aircraft engineer is the sole earner however he cannot put in his application for canada as he does'nt have the required transcripts for canadian accreditation.
