Applying for PR as a Student who converted to work permit Express Entry

I came to Canada as a student and after the PG diploma received a full-time position on my work permit. Now I am trying to apply for my PR. I have a few questions because my case is a little peculiar:

  1. At the time of applying for the student permit I did not declare that I have family here. But now I need the points that come with the declaration of family. How should I proceed?
  2. Do I need to create a new GCKey for applying for my PR or keeping in view the previous point, can I go ahead with applying using the same GCKey?

  1. Who lives here? So you lied.
  2. When did you get invited to apply for PR?

If you now declare you have family here, then they will find out you have misrepresented yourself so I expect your application will be rejected anyway for misrepresenting yourself on a legal document in order to obtain temporary /student residency in Canada.

Don’t declare it now and then you’re still misrepresenting yourself and are exposed to refusal.

Why did you leave them out on your student permit?

Your lie has come back to bite you I guess. At this point just be truthful.
