Can anyone tell me about the 5 points you can gain by having a relative in Canada; does that relative have to be over 18yrs old? I have checked the official website but cannot find anything relating to age...

Don't know of any age limit. But an expert might know. Section 10.15 says

d) Relatives in Canada:
• Award five points if the applicant or accompanying spouse or common- law
partner has a relative (parent, grandparent, child, grandchild, child of a
parent, child of a grandparent, or grandchild of a parent) who is residing in
Canada and is a Canadian citizen or permanent resident.
