Hi folks,
Is it true that I can increase my point even after lodging the app by sending an evidence like my wife's assessment or a better language score? or it would be frozen since submission?

Note: I think that I might face some difficulties with my work experience and full score of that part.By doing this we may secure the process as far as I hear.

Thank you for comments.

As long as your application has not bee nassessed, you can provide a Spouse skills assessment and evidence of recent work experience to score 5 spouse points. You can also indicate that you can make investment if required if you had not previously indicated this on your application.

Thank you for advice.
But exactly when is this time? assigning a CO means that it has frozen? or there are other clue that I may expect?

I am not sure about it! The booklet says that you should to have your spouse's skills assessed at the time of application, though investment bonus points are fine.

When case officer is assigned, usually means that the assessment is near - following assessment you would immediately get a letter for any further requirements like health and character or notification that you were going into the pool.

So does this mean that they let you know before your application is pooled?
So they give a chance to provide something to increase your points?

No

The assessment is done and your score locked in, then they advise you are in the POOL, or, if they need further information before they can assess your score, they will request and then assess your points and lock in.

Sometimes, where the investment forms part of the potential score, the assessment is not locked in until the last minute when the Investment is actually made. So it is difficult to guage sometimes whethrr there has been a legal assessment of the score or not.
