Hi guys!
I need clarification regarding the age calculation:
Age is calculated on the day of your birthday.
For instance, A person born on 26/11/1991 would be 29 years old on 26/11/2020 and will be considered 29 till 25/11/2021, and as the date turns to 26, the person will be considered 30 years old (i.e. 26/11/2021)

Is this the method used for calculation by IRCC?
That means until the day, a person turns 30 (on his birthday) he ll be considered 29 and will be awarded points according to 29 years old?

Right?


Please clarify that, if I am correct or is there any other way the age is considered.

Yes, that's correct. IRCC calculates age based on your birthday. Using an Age Calculator, you'll be considered 29 until the day you turn 30. Points are awarded according to your age until your birthday.
