Family in Canada

[Josh@13]

So l scored 15 points for having a family in Canada giving a total of 407. I have received ITA in the Agric and Agri Food draw but l am now learning l couldn’t use my cousin as relation in Canada regardless of the fact that l had stayed and grew up together with them all my life. I’m yet to submit my application and wondering the possible options l could address this with IRRC. Should the 15 points be taking out, l would still have received ITA with 392 against the lowest CRS of 354 in the draw. Please what’s the best way to go about this ? Counting on your input, thank you.

You can't claim points for a cousin. It doesn't matter how you grew up. They are not your siblings. Submit an LOE to explain that you incorrectly claimed the 15 points and want to remove them from your profile.

Well noted, thank you. Should this be done before l submit my application for PR or l can submit that as part of the application documents for PR?
