Anyone who completed entire course from Home Country online and got PR points for Education?

Hi, since IRCC has said that we will get PGWP even if studied from outside Canada till 31 Dec 2021.
I am appearing only for a single program (8 months - 2 sems) and then plan to apply for PR since i have 4 yrs of work exp. So my program duration will be Sep'21 to Apr'22.

My question is that If i study outside canada till 31 dec 2021, will I get my CRS points for PR?
Is there anyone who got PR points for education even after completing the entire program online from home country.

No, you will not get PR points for your education if you completed more than half of it outside Canada. You would still however be eligible for PGWP provided you didn't violate any of your SP conditions.

Thanks for the update, however, continuing till dec would be exactly half, not more than half of the total classes, it would still won't be eligible for PR points?

IRCC requires that you complete at least 50% AND spend at least 8 months of the study in Canada. If you are able to satisfy both conditions you should be fine.

hey! given the fact that IRCC has eased the rules for Intl students studying from home country for PGWP, is it still sure they won't the study CRS points if they continue to study from home till Dec for a 8 month course (Sep 21 - Apr 22)?

The discussions above yours happened this week. No changes in the CRS policy. The change in pgwp has been in force for over a year already.

it will be so hard with the FSW draws since it has been paused for a while and the current pool is huge. you won't qualify for CEC until you get 1 year of Canadian experience. CEC is the fastest and easiest way with less stress.
