I got an invitation to apply in the last draw and realized that I did not claim points accurately and do not have enough points to meet the minimum CRS score for my draw. I claimed 3 years of employment outside of Canada in my express entry profile and I actually had 2 years 10 months and 25 days (the express entry profile did not allow exact dates to be entered and thus it calculated 3 years of employment based on the months); when entering the exact dates of employment in my ITA profile it lowers my score by 12 points (from 544 to 532). I understand that if I decline my ITA my profile will then return to the Express Entry pool but will I be able to update my profile to reflect my 2 years employment outside Canada and thus my new score of 532?
Updating Express Entry Profile after Declining ITA

Can't you wait till you reach 3 years and then submit your PR application instead of declining the ITA? Unless I misread something you already have 2 yrs 10 mos 25 days exp. You have 60 days to submit your PR application from that time, that easily adds up remaining 35 days that are required to have a 3 year exp - making you meet the CRS claimed.
The experience I am talking about is for my foreign work experience (outside Canada) so there's no way to extend that even if I wait.
