Thank you I got only 365 :mad:
I m not sure what your IELTS score is, but IELTS plays a very important role in boosting your CRS score. Ideally getting CLB 9 in IELTS (LRWS 8777) will give you the best points, You can try different values in the calculators here and see for yourself how much of a difference IELTS makes to your CRS score.

In the actual application page, for IELTS you have to enter absolute values or the CLB equivalent for the same (I do not remember as I submitted my profile long time back)?

Hi Stanlee,

Thanks for ur valuable inputs, however likewise Mani30 i do observe the same that via the CRS sheet i was just touching 400 pts (me+my spouse) where as with the calculators link u provided its showing 467 (me + my spouse). Just wanted to ensure from you that can i trust the calculator result and can go ahead with the EE.

Also i have read at many threads that 400+ CRS usually do receives PNP (ex OINP etc), which can further add 600 pts and can pack the deal for ITA. However the PNP process usually took time and within that time frame is it possible that i can receive an ITA at 467 points only. What will happen in that scenario? Will OINP refund my fee if i ask them to cancel.

Lastly it would be great if you share any forum link over WES. Read on some threads that they only accept documents from university/institutions and not from the individual. Also do they evaluate work-ex apart educational qualifications.

Thanks in advance. Cheers! J
