Hello and welcome to the club!
I had been invited in the first healthcare round and had a combination of primary and secondary occupations, but I was invited in that round based on my primary one, even though it was not my current one.
I am hardly an expert on this myself, but I believe you should leave your APR details exactly as you’d entered them when you first created the Express Entry profile to avoid any confusion.
I had the same confusion when I first encountered the APR questions after the ITA, and decided to leave everything as it is. I don’t think it matters. They only said you’d be eligible for these kind of draws if you had enough experience in one of those occupations within the last three years. They didn’t say anything about it having to be marked as the primary occupation on the profile.
I also had a similar situation with my funds where my mother had deposited into my account the last remaining part of my father’s inheritance earlier this month. I explained it in my POF document and included the deposit slip, my mother’s bank statement showing where the money came from, my birth certificate showing my relationship to her, and her passport.
I have no way of knowing whether this was good enough, but my eligibility is now marked complete, so I believe it did the trick.
Yes, they are going to look at the total of all your bank accounts wherever they are.
My bank provided me with one letter on their letterhead showing only the current balances in savings, current and investment accounts, so I also included bank statements showing the balance of each at the start of each month from January through July 2023, as well as the last credit card statement.
Also make sure you have any stamps on the bank statement from your home country not in English or French translated. My bank statements had my full name and address in Arabic only and I had those translated into English.
