Hi,
I am applying for EE under FSW. My score is coming around 77 including my spouse marks.
I am a graduate and has good language and experience scores.
My Spouse is post graduate and but she has not so good language scores. So i am applying as principal applicant.
My main query is whether do i need to get ECA for my spouse's both graduate and post graduate degrees as it carries 10 points. Or it is not mandatory for her.
I also want to ask that my CRS score is coming around 415 (without a job offer), is there any way to include my spouse job offer and work experience in that score??

Thanks in advance.

- For your spouse, an ECA for the highest degree would be sufficient to get maximum points, i.e., 10 points, if it's a Masters/professional degree [unless the agency issuing the ECA asks for previous degrees, as well].

- If your spouse has a job offer, then check your points with her being the PA, try if she can improve her language score. Otherwise, you won't get points for her job offer being a dependent and not the PA.
