With or Without spouse

[TC21]

We currently have 447 points with my wife's ielts score pending. If I apply without spouse my score moves up to 459. Can I do that and still show the spouse as dependent.
And if and when I get ITA, will that be for just me or both?

You can't apply without spouse while being married.

If you mention your spouse as 'Non accompanying' in your EE profile, the PR will be just for you and you will have to get your spouse over separately on spousal sponsorship - that process takes considerably longer than EE.

Hmmm. So then no point. Thanks!

Goodday,
there is no way to do that. Your best bet is to have her do IELTS and get the additional score available via that. i beleive thats 20 more points still available.

all the best
