I have checked the eligibility for CEC EXPRESS ENTRY and I have enough points to get invitation but my concern is, I have already applied for my spouse visa(sowp) in March (result yet to come). So can I attached my spouse name in express entry CEC pool? Tough I am in canada and spouse in India

I didn't make the profile yet but before make it I just wanted to be sure that, if I add my spouse name in the profile and after getting invitation for PR, it won't be any problem because she is in India and I am in Canada and her sowp is in applied status.

She must but included in your EE profile and it doesn’t effect the SOWP.

Do you have an ITA? Does she have IELTS and ECAs?
I haven't made a profile yet but my points are going to be more than 430 without my wife's ietls and eca. Is it mandatory for us to put my wife ECA ? Because latest draw was near 380-390 and as I said my score is 430+.
So what would you suggest?

You can put her as unaccompanying.

But I want her to get PR with me. So is it possible I add her as accompanying dependent(she is in ) without her ietls and EACs and me being in .
