I am entering my current study in my profile. What should I answer for the question "Was *** awarded a Canadian degree, diploma or certificate for this period of study? "
These are my answers to the earlier questions:
- This is my current study? -> Yes
- Standing at the end of study period? -> Not completed

Clearly, you haven't got any degree, diploma or certificate for this study period, yet. How can you answer 'yes' for a Canadian one?
You should reply 'No' to this question.
Of course I haven't got a Canadian degree yet. But this is my question, why it asks me this question while I have already said that this is my current study?
And when I am saying no, another question pops up asking "Has *** had an Educational Credential Assessment (ECA) within the past five years for this degree, diploma or certificate?"
It is just confusing to me that it asks these questions for a program that is my current study and I have declared it is not completed yet?

Yeah, it might sound confusing but what's the big deal in answering 'No' to these questions, if they don't apply in your case?
IRCC just wants to make sure you're not deprived of any single CRS point you might otherwise be eligible for.
For example, in some countries, many postgraduate programmes have multiple outcomes/options, i.e., certificate, diploma, degree.. based on the duration of the study. Like, you could have completed a part of the study and could claim a diploma (and might have received one) but would have decided to go on with the study for few more months/or an another year to get the advanced degree, the Masters! In such a case, you might be able to fetch some extra CRS points for the part of your 'current' study.

What did you end up doing? I'm confused about what I am supposed to select for that. I am currently studying for a 2-year masters degree and I am in my second year right now and have no backlogs. Does that mean I'm "in good standing but no certificate or diploma awarded"? I do not have any transcripts to show for it as my university has not issued any because of COVID. Should I select "not completed" because of this?

Hi. If you haven't completed your studies yet, you would select "Not completed". Good academic standing means you got an acceptable mark or grade point average for your study program.
