It seems that one can earn more points in the application for skilled worker immigration if the principal applicant's partner has good job experience, qualification and/or education, so I wonder if the single applicant like me will be disadvantaged?

I am single and I took the "points" for Canada citizenship.. I had a total of 34...I need 87.. So, I think they do discriminate.. U get like 20 or so points if ur spouse is qualified or u have family that lives there.. They don't want US citizens to have to live on their welfare system and being married helps a person not to have to do that (or quailfy).. I was told I could go to school there for 2 years...get a degree and then get a job , then after I work at LEAST 1 year, I might be eligible..depending on the career I choose...If I had $80,000 to go to school there, it would be no problem.. (I can't get aid)..So, yes.

Good question, but I think you should ask this by calling Immigration Canada or the Canadian Embassy where you live. Canada is screaming for skilled immigrants and so I can't see you being at a disadvantage if you have skills we need, whether or not you are married. Depending on what your skills are, I know that BC and Alberta are in dire straits for skilled immigrants.
