My overall score is 390 with a breakdown of it below
CRS - Human Capital - Age 83
CRS - Human Capital - Level of Education 135 (i used my masters as my education qualification, can i add my bsc as an additional and get more points?)
CRS - Human Capital - First Official Language Proficiency 122
CRS - Skill Transferability - Education (25 Masters only)
CRS - Skill Transferability - Foreign Work Experience 25

It seems i am almost close to hitting the 400's but as i am unmarried and have no siblings, i was wondering if any advice available on how to increase this score. I am a business Analyst and 34yrs, it looks like unless i get a provisional nomination, job offer i am not sure i have any more options. any ideas will be appreciated

No, you can not add bsc, only the highest counts so only Masters in your case. What was your exact English test score? Celpip or IELTS?

You need to max out your IELTS. If you do that, you'll get 454, assuming you have 3+ years of work experience.

Check your Language test score carefully. It looks that in just 1 skill you have less than CBL 9. And that cost you 50 points in transferability.
Recheck your test and either do another session to get the needed set or appeal if that lower CBL is for speaking or writing.

Hi i did IELTS and my score was 7.5 in total ( listening 8.5, reading 6.5, writing 7.0 and speaking 8.5. which i found strange. does it mean my only option is to retake the whole ielts again?

Super easy in your case... Just retake IELTS and do the same score just with reading 7.0 instead of 6.5 and you'll have 448 points ;)
Some people have done their English test more than 5 times... don't worry.
