Same situation although I’ll be creating the profile next month.

You need to be honest in your letter of explanation and explain that your spouse is non accompanying due to points, but is in Canada, and if you are granted PR you will sponsor your spouse.

A non accompanying spouse requires an explanation. There is an existing case on the forum of an applicant receiving a procedural fairness letter due to a non accompanying spouse in Canada. Be clear about what you are doing and explicit.

IRCC seems to accept non accompanying spouses due to points, if you are clear and up front about it.

Yes, it is better to be honest. If you can substantiate your reasons for her non-accompany. The immigration support staff may advice or go ahead with the process. If you do otherwise, and immigration confirm you gave false information or left out important details, they can: refuse your application, find you inadmissible and/ or bar you for 5 years from applying to come to Canada for any reason. My advice is that since your score is going to be less than the lowest score in your round of invitations if your partner is to accompany. Rather than decline the invitation, you should try to improve your score and update your EE profile.

Hello Dear,

I initially mentioned that my spouse have not decided yet for her long term commitment to live in Canada. If she will change her mind then I’ll update my application accordingly....however, I withdrew my profile and apply again because draw points drop and I can file alongwith her in my application. ....reason I mentioned earlier is correct and you can explain it if they ask
