Hi all,

How does spouse unaccompanying option work. My ECA is due on 13 June, trying hard to get wife's transcripts done from her university but officials are ignorant in that part of India. Also her taking IELTS isn't possible as she has been a hindi language student throughout her life and our 11month old son keeps her busy all day. My score win without spouse option will be 449, guess enough to get ITA in couple of rounds. Post I am able to get a job, my wife can join on long-term visa and depending on income I can sponsor my family for PR subsequently. Any idea on what are expected timelines if I go through this route.

Hello everyone, me and my husband are sitting at 437 right now. I am the main applicant. If I apply without him we hope we will get ITA. but how does this work? If we get an ITA would I be asked why my spouse is not accompanying me? How long will it take him to join me there? in my new express entry profile should I mention the old profile? Please answer all these questions.
(we don't have kids)

Hi,
If you take TEF to prove second language knowlegde, you need to at least achieve CLB 5 per ability in order to obtain points. It could add 4 points to CRS total (1 point per ability- second language) for CLB 5 or 6.

In a short time period, CLB 5 is posible. For other hand, it would be really difficult to get CLB 7 in less than a year, if you are parting from zero knowledge; writing and speaking are the most difficult ones.
Hope you guys are OK with people like me who have Zero knowledge on French but interested in learning asap, joining the group?
