hi

my wife is main applicant with master degree, WES equivalency " 5 years of professional study" which i found it equals to master/professional degree and gives 126 points.

i cant seem to undestand the logic with CIC in points distrubution, since master/professional degree in one category gets higher points than 2 post secondary degrees, but then it gets lower points in another category as below


Two or more certificates, diplomas, or degrees. One must be for a program of three or more years - you get 119 points with spouse
and
Master's degree, OR professional degree needed to practice in a licensed profession - you get 126 points with spouse

however for skill transferability with CLB7+

Post-secondary program credential of one year or longer - you get 13 points with spouse
and
Two or more post-secondary program credentials ...etc - you get 25 points with spuse

i hope you guys who applied with master or professional degree can help.
