Change in score might be due to the change of age.

Does it occur to anyone that the change of the score (or eligibility ) can be related to your age? For example, your CRS will be 10pts lower after you turn 41 (if you are single).

is there a doubt? Any one below 17 or above 45 will score 0. Age related score matrix is very well defined here :

Because some people noticed that their scores have been lowered and don't know why. This is the main reason that one's score will get lower over the time.

Re: your age will affect your score.

In the not so distant past, information was locked in as of the date of application. If you said you had 12 months of work experience, it had to have been earned by THAT day and not some weeks in the future. It seems only fair that age at date of application should be accepted in the same manner. Dreaming?

On the other hand, time will add more points to your work experience up to certain years. One may get higher points overall.

Yes. You are dreaming.
They now say like this... "Foreign nationals who, on February 27, 2015 at 23:59:51 UTC, have been assigned a total of 735 points or......"
If you have x number of points on the date of invitation, NOT on the date of profile submission, you are eligible.

Which means, information is not locked anymore on the date of application. But rather if you have X number of points on the date when they draw.. you are good.
