Canada Immigration awards up to 10 points for 5 factors, designed to assess your adaptability to
life in Canada. Four of these factors involve some previous connection to Canada that you may
have had, and the other is your spouse’s education, which again may help you establish yourself
in Canada. The factors are:
|
Spouse's education:
|
If your spouse has post secondary education, you can get between 3
and 5 points for Adaptability.
|
|
Previous study in Canada:
|
If either you or your spouse have studied at least 2 years in Canada,
you can get 5 points for Adaptability.
|
|
Previous work in Canada:
|
If either you or your spouse have worked for at least 1 year in
Canada with a work permit, you can get 5 points for Adaptability.
|
|
Relatives in Canada:
|
If you or your spouse have close relatives in Canada (a parent,
grandparent, sibling, child, grandchild, uncle, aunt, niece or
nephew), you can get 5 points for Adaptability.
|
|
Arranged Employment:
|
If you have been granted 10 points under the Arranged
Employment factor, you can also get 5 points under Adaptability.
|
If you are assessed more than 10 points under these factors (for example, if you had studied in
Canada for 2 years, worked in Canada for 1 year, and have Arranged Employment), you would
just be assessed the maximum of 10 points.
