For chase sapphire reserve points, I want to hoard and maximize value but with airlines and hotels devaluing lately I’m a bit concerned that deals will be few and far between for the next year. Any reason why liquidating them now via 1.5x credits is a bad idea?

Hi all,

I am an IT professional having almost 5 years of experience and want to move to Canada for PR. My CRS score is not upto the cut off. I need someone who can help in earning connections points for Manitoba PNP program.

As it allows having an acquaintance or a friend to earn those 20 points, it can help my PR application.

Anyone who is PR and resident of Manitoba can dm me to discuss around it. I am ready to pay for this assistance as well.
