Do I have to report changes in employment after application submission?

Dear CanadaVisa Members,

Hope all is fine with you.

I have an important question. My spouse and I applied via FSW2014 and our case is assigned to a super lazy officer. My spouse is the main applicant and I HAVE NOT RECEIVED ANY POINTS BECAUSE OF MY EMPLOYMENT.

Our eligibility and medical were passed in early 2015. Unfortunately they forgot to send my file (not my spouse) for background check after eligibility and medical checks. Instead they sent it 9 months later after I contacted them. I found out about this in my GCMS. It was a mistake/misunderstanding about my file. My security check also passed 5 or 6 months ago. Our visa office average processing time was about 10 months and we have been kept waiting for about 30 months for no reasons. All of our friends got their visas in about 10 months or less from the same visa office.

All this time, I was self employed in a low level NOC (in my country) because I thought I was moving to Canada. Instead of committing myself in a related/better NOC (in my country), I chose a light work so I had plenty of time self-studying to build a background for a future career in a much better NOC in Canada (for the furture). I once again want to reiterate that I thought about 10 months of waiting time and did not even think we could be kept waiting for 30 months.

Now the problems arise because I am getting multiples of very nice job offers since last year and the only reason I didn't accept them is that I thought I had to inform the visa office and that pretty much scared me. Because I do not want to increase the processing time of our application. I am a little worried that they might reset the background checks because of my possible employment change.

I really need some certificates that requires some backgrounds in the related fields. My potential employers are also willing to give me more job experience testimony if I join them. This is something that I really cannot miss. But at the same time I am reluctant to endanger our application in a way that can cause more delays. It is a really bad dilemma.

I would be thankful if you could tell me if it is fine that I do not mention this potential change in application to them. I am still not sure if it is mandatory to report this or not. I again reiterate that I am not the main applicant and I have not received any points because of my degree or experience.

Thank you in advance

already answered u in the other thread.

CIC is more concerned with main applicant than dependent of main applicant.
