Why 22? He has 1 year Master and 17 years of education. So, why not 25?

Because 1 year was for a PG certificate, which drops his years to 16. Think of this way, if you failed Grade 12 3 times and then got a BA and Masters in the next 3 years, are the going to credit you with 18 years education or 15?

Sometimes this sort of confusion leads to over calculation of points. So make sure before applying.
