Hi nawari,
Me again: I calculated the points using the (somewhat limited) info you gave us, and I'm only getting 59 points for you under FSW eligibility scoring, not 62. Is there some info you didn't give us?
1. Language Skills: 18 points (see previous reply)
2. Education: 21 points (Canadian post-secondary degree or diploma for a program of three years or longer, or equal)
3. Experience: 15 points (6 or more years)
4. Age: 5 points (42 years) (and this will go down by 1 point when you turn 43)
5. Arranged employment in
Canada: 0 points (none that you mentioned to us; do you have arranged employment?)
6. Adaptability: 0 points (none that you mentioned to us; unless your spouse takes the TEF and gets CLB 4+ on all 4 areas; unless you have arranged employment or you or your spouse worked in Canada in the past - did you?; I assume neither you didn't study in Canada (otherwise you wouldn't need WES) - did you spouse study in Canada?)
[And then of course, the not-part-of-the-score-calculation but still relevant fact of minimum available settlement funds, which you meet ($50k)]
If, as I've assumed, you 1) don't have arranged employment, 2) neither you nor your spouse has ever worked in Canada in the past, and 3) your spouse didn't study in Canada) your score is 59 points.
This means that just having your wife take the TEF won't help you, as it still won't get you to 67 points (it will only get you to 64). You would ALSO need to secure arranged employment, or you need to improve your IELTS scores...
I know you said you already tried on the IELTS, but perhaps you could take some classes (it seems to me that improving your IELTS scores would be easier than securing arranged employment (especially as it would need to be full-time, paid employment for at least a year, likely with a Labour Market Impact Assessment...)
