You need to find your CRS score. Currently the score is around 470 & upward to get ITA. Other than this you need to search provinces extensively to find your NOC in demand and apply accordingly

Have you looked to see if you qualify for immigration?

There is lots of information on how to get decertified. Would encourage you to search this forum.

For immigration purposes, for physiotherapists, your degree needs to be evaluated by any of the recognised evaluation agencies like WES, IQAS, ICAS, BCES-IT, CES

If you are looking forward to practice Physiotherapy once you are in Canada. You need to get an ECA for your degree to be able to claim points for education under EE. Once you have immigrated, you need to sit for the Physiotherapy Competency Examination (PCE) to be able to obtain a license.

There is a need for physiotherapists in Canada but you will have to look into whether your degree will be recognized by physiotherapy licensing organizations and what would be needed to get recertified and how long that typically takes. Would start with CRS scores. You will likely find physiotherapists on PNP skills in demand list.
