Question regarding these extra points

[vidalbr]

Does anyone know if these extra points for a Canadian Degree will be awarded in a EE application, even though the main applicant do not has a canadian degre but the spouse of the main applicant has ?
Just to clarify, I have an open work permit and intend to apply through CEC but with these changes, maybe I could be impacted and only after my wife's graduation I could have all the required points.

I believe it's only the main applicant who would get the points if they went to a Canadian uni, but I might be wrong.

I don't see why you wouldn't just create another profile with your wife as principle applicant and see what happens.

Yeah, the new ministerial instructions said nothing about spouse's "Canadian" education. So that's a big question mark!

You can test it here with their revised calculator (may not be 100% perfect yet...)

Not sure that thing is working properly yet.

It is all about perspective, she did not graduate yet, but certainly I could create a fake profile in order to test this scenario.

For me it really doesn't matter who really gets the PR first, but if you consider that many applicants come to Canada with a strategy to immigrate and they take so many risks here, and with all theses changes it looks like the government put us all in a cage and started to play.
