1. what's the shortcut in that? am I giving a bribe or is something illegitimate or illegal way by applying for an individual? what are you saying..
2. How come misrepresentation? while filling the form Canadian application form asks are u married and have a kid, there I will put yes. but in the following question, when it asks that: does your spouse joining you in the application: No. so what the thing I am hiding here? why do you sound like i am committing a crime?
I wondered I have seen many questions regarding applying as an individual or with the spouse. and never ever had such misleading replies. only the discussion was about if my spouse can join me later.
You can do that. It's perfectly legal if your family is mentioned in your application but as non-accompanying.
I think there was some misunderstanding in the words you used "Married vs Single". You're not applying as a single individual - this would be a misrepresentation. You are applying as a married applicant with non-accompanying family members, which is okay to do.
Keep in mind though, that even 350 points are not even nearly close to the cut-off scores that exist now. You need to get 445 to be eligible for ITA, considering the previous rounds of invitations.
No one knows your situation but you might consider getting higher degree, higher IELTS score or higher TEF score if you don't have one in order to improve your score.
