Its better to do it from Kuwait as that might create a question that how person from Pakistan translate the document.

Express Entry: Details Of The Comprehensive Ranking System Announced Dec 2014

With less than one month until the much-anticipated Express Entry selection system for Canadian immigration comes into operation, Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC) this week revealed details about its Comprehensive Ranking
With less than one month until the much-anticipated Express Entry selection system for Canadian immigration comes into operation, Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC) this week revealed details about its Comprehensive Ranking System. With this information, potential candidates for immigration to Canada now have a clearer picture of how Express Entry will operate.
The Comprehensive Ranking System will rank candidates who have made an expression of interest in immigrating to Canada and are eligible for one of three federal economic immigration programs:

■Federal Skilled Worker Program
■Federal Skilled Trades Program
■Canadian Experience Class
Once a candidate’s eligibility has been confirmed, he or she will enter the Express Entry pool and be ranked against other candidates in the pool. There are up to 1,200 points available under the system, and these are segmented as follows:

■Up to 500 points for the candidate’s core human capital factors, including age, level of education, language ability, and work experience. In the case where the candidate has an accompanying spouse or common-law partner, up to 460 points will be awarded for the core human capital of the principal applicant, with up to 40 points available for the core human capital of his or her spouse or common-law partner. Up to 80 points will be awarded to candidates who have at least one year of Canadian work experience.
■Up to 100 points will be awarded for the skills transferability of the candidate. These points are awarded based on a combination of certain human capital factors.
■600 points will be awarded for either a qualifying offer of arranged employment from a Canadian employer or a nomination certificate from a Canadian province.
For full details and a complete overview of the Comprehensive Ranking System, please see this page. Once you have reviewed the system, we invite you to use our free CRS Calculator. In just a couple of minutes this valuable tool will let you know your points, which will assist you in your preparation for Express Entry.

No need to do it from Kuwait. My BC along with my daughter and son are all in Arabic and I did my translation and notarization from Karachi. I have already got my PER ;D. So go ahead and do it from Karachi as it is going to be very easy process and not a burden on pocket as well.
