Hello all. Just have 2 questions about EE.

My profile:

BSC Hons Computer Science from University of Toronto St. George
MS from Private Uni in Bangladesh
1 year Experience as Software Engineer in Bangladesh
IELTS 8.5
Sister is Canadian citizen

My score shows up as ~495.

My first issue is, right after I returned from Canada, I worked as the IT supervisor in my granddad's company. This is seperate from the 1 year i worked at the software engineering firm. Stuipidly, I didn't take proper payslips and cheques for the work i did in the family business. Would it still be possible to claim some extra years of work experience if can get some documentation from HR that I did indeed work during that time? Also, that would be a different NOC from my 1 year of work as a software engineer. Is that an issue?

Secondly, my girlfriend isn't anglophone and isn't educated. She is just a simple Bangladeshi girl. She's pressuring me to marry her though cuz her dad is trying to get her married off to someone else (arranged marriage is common here). I noticed that if I put "married but spouse wont accompany you to canada" in the calculator, my score doesn't get lowered. But, if I take her to Canada with me, my score lowers significantly. My question is, is this actually correct? Is it possible for me to marry her without lowering my score? If I marry my girlfriend, and she doesn't accompany me now, can she accompany me at a future date?
