Hi
In my EE profile previously I got 30 points for my part time Canadian Masters degree however after making a new profile I do not get any point for the same degree. I have entered exactly the same information as I did before in my profile. Can not figure out the issue.

* I had to make my new profile as all the information got deleted from my previous profile after a small update in my application.

Has anyone else out there experienced anything similar???

Did you choose stating something like "English or French language" while uploading? If yes, you meant that your Masters had ESL training (invalid).
