So they have an approved LMIA or is it LMIA exempt for you to work in Canada? If LMIA exempt, you don’t count points until you have your work permit and have been working in Canada for at least a year.

If LMIA, you change to PA to count the points.

Principal applicant. You need to be PA to count points for LMIA or if LMIA exemption, you count points once you have one year of Canadian experience.
Can we switch the profiles like wife is primary and profile in the pool but in between i become the primary? Can we do this?

You create a new EE profile but with you as the primary applicant.
