Keep in mind you can't count any work experience gained as a student, only after you applied for a PGWP.

The Ontario international student stream is in very high demand and nobody knows when it will reopen. When it does, it will probably close on the same day.

You may want to really work on your English and retake the IELTS as that will significantly improve your chances of becoming a PR. An LMIA would also help but probably not enough if you don't raise your English scores.

thanks for the reply I’m afraid of the total point count im just making it my second option what do you think about moving to other province which province should i move and would be better for permanent residency?
