You will only get 5 adaptability points towards fsw eligibility points where you are required to score minimum 67 points. No crs points are available for relatives unless you have siblings. So if you already are scoring 67 eligibility points without this 5 adaptability points then you can answer No to this relative related question and avoid documentations. But if you must get this 5 points to make yourself eligible for express entry then you need following documents mentioned below.

Proof of relationship to a relative in Canada, status of a relative in Canada and residence status of a relative in Canada (including a brother or sister for the purpose of obtaining additional CRS points)
Purpose
To validate a claim of, and award points associated with, having

• a relative in Canada who is a Canadian citizen or permanent resident (for the Federal Skilled Worker Program adaptability points);
• an adult brother or sister who is a Canadian citizen or permanent resident residing in Canada (for additional CRS points).

Document requirements

• This documentation is required if the applicant indicates that they, or their accompanying spouse or common-law partner, have a family member in Canada who is a permanent resident or a Canadian citizen.
• A copy of both sides of the family member's Canadian citizenship document, Canadian birth certificate and/or permanent resident card must be provided.
• Evidence that the family member currently resides in Canada must be provided (a residential lease, mortgage documents, utility bills, etc.).
  • The documents must show their address in Canada and should be recent (dated within six months prior to submission).
• Proof of the relationship of the applicant or the accompanying spouse or common-law partner to the family member must also be provided (e.g., a birth certificate, an official document naming the applicant as a relative, a copy of the inside back cover of the relative’s passport showing the relative’s parents’ marriage certificate, legal adoption documents and any other documents that prove or describe the relationship).
• If the applicant claims a stepbrother or stepsister, there should be no evidence in the application that the marriage or common-law relationship between the parents of the stepbrother or stepsister has broken down.

Individuals who must submit this documentation

• The principal applicant
• Their spouse or common-law partner

Nop, no CRS points for having an uncle. Only 5 FSW eligibility points. I think you are not clear enough about FSW eligibility points and Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) Points. You need to be eligible first to join the express entry pool. It is 100 available eligibility points based on six selection factors where you must score 67 points. Once you become eligible you will be placed in express entry pool and ranked by your crs points on available 1200 points. When express entry draw is conducted and X number of invitations are issued only highest ranked X number of candidates will get ITA. Only a Canadian brother or sister of primary applicant or spouse can give 15 CRS points but an uncle/aunt only gives 5 eligibility points, not CRS points.

Please read below-
You can earn 15 additional points if you (or your spouse or common-law partner who will come with you to Canada) have a brother or sister who is:

• living in Canada and
• a citizen or permanent resident of Canada

To get these points, the brother or sister must also be

• 18 years old or older
• related by blood, marriage, common-law partnership or adoption
• have a parent in common
