Even just secondary education for both you and your wife would be worth about 30 points iirc, so worth doing IMO.
I didn’t sit all of my exams, so will it still be worth it, will I definitely get 30 points?

Also when I search for the LMIA application all I find is one for temporary workers. Is that the corrrect one for me??

There is only one LMIA application. The purpose of the application is not the entry permit the individual is seeking, CIC have nothing to do with it. It processed by ESDC to determine whether the employer has a justifiable reason to hire a foreign worker. They will then either approve it or deny it if the correct procedures have not been followed, they determine there are sufficient Canadians able to do the job.

I've no idea, if you completed secondary education, and your wife did, then yes, it'll be 30 points. More if she has post-secondary education. The cost of the ECA's are a drop in the ocean when it comes to the cost of emigration, so personally I'd apply to have those extra points, but your call.

Yes, you will be a temp worker, moving over on a Temporary Work Permit. PR will come later down the line.
