I would recommend belowA . Calculate your CRS scoreB. If above 450 you can get an ITA,C. Evaluate your profile as your husband as dependent, see if above 450, and perform vice-versa for your husbands profile if above 450 you guys are ON.D. If CRS Score does not help with the current situation, See OINP PNP program, evaluate how it can help you score more points to apply for EE for Ontario, OINP + EE will help you in getting PR with higher pointsE. Student Option, Itu2019s easy to get into this route, but you will have to spend money and Time on education and see that you can be in status, and get a job after the studies for next 1 year and apply for a PR on the basis of Education and 1 year Experience.F. I am an engineer, and I see the world day in day out, reverse engineering things and concepts to make my own dreams come to reality, let me teach you the mindset, if you or your partner are going for the student road, then first go through the NOC list of all the jobs that pay higher after your studies, then weight the concepts you have learned till now and apply to a job profile where you guys can make it happen together and this will lead to a job and pr at the end of the study in a situation where you and your partner are sure you will get a PR and have a good life ahead, plan like the Joker in Batman - evaluate your studies select a NOC as per your studies in past earn a Degree Get Experience a year of action apply for PR and you guys are all setThis ends my evaluation of your situation from a well put question with good skills you guys can have good life aheadAll the best for your Journey ahead, but let me know if you like this answer, and up-vote it, in the review if you like my honest review, as I am answering to your requirements, and for this advise you will be charged around 200$ Canadian, if you would have gone to a lawyer or consultant.One sentient helping fellow sentient to achieve greatness in lifeWishing you and your partner Best in LifeOne EE timeline 7 monthsOINP + EE timeline 10 monthsStudent Timeline 6 monthsContact me if you are truly working towards you goal and are sure to achieve the Canadian Dream !!
