AOR 29 September
When I submitted my application, I put my wife as a non-accompanying spouse because adding her to the application would have brought my CRS below the threshold and I would not have received an ITA.
However, it was announced on 27 October 2020 that English/French bilingual applicants will now get 50 additional points instead of 30. Because of that, now my CRS would be above the threshold even after adding my wife to my application as an accompanying spouse. Since I have already submitted my application and received the AOR, I cannot make any changes in my application myself. Is there any possibility to change my wife's status from non-accompanying to accompanying spouse in my current application?
The reason I am in doubt is because I don't know if the 50 points thing would apply to me now, since it has come into effect after I have already received my COPR on my 486 points.
