Link with your partner

A household link connects your Lexpoint account with your spouse’s or common-law partner’s. Once you are connected, each of your ImmiReports uses the other’s real details wherever a spouse or partner factor applies, instead of what was typed on a family form. Connected means shared: there is no separate sharing switch.

Links live at Settings → Associations → Family.

Before you start

• Your spouse or common-law partner is on your family record, with the email they use for Lexpoint, or will sign up with.
• Your profile has your date of birth and citizenship. Without them the invite is refused with Complete your profile first (date of birth and citizenship) before sending household invites.
• Neither of you is already in an active household link.

What connecting shares

Settings → Family lists it under What connecting shares:

• Education history
• Language test results (English and French)
• Canadian work experience
• Date of birth, citizenship and immigration status
• Sponsor-eligibility answers

Where these facts appear:

Where	What
Each ImmiReport	The spouse and partner factors are computed from the other person’s own records.
Wherever that report is viewed or shared	The same derived facts, including on a shared ImmiReport link and in a representative’s view if you are their client.
The other person’s family record	Your name, date of birth, citizenship and residence status.

Never shared by connecting: your documents, files, cases, or employer connections, access to each other’s account, or the rest of your ImmiReport.

Send the invite

1. Open Settings → Associations → Family and choose Invites & History.
2. Find your spouse or partner. The row shows their name, relationship, email, and Not invited.
3. Read the line under the button. It states what inviting means: Inviting connects your accounts: each of your ImmiReports may use the other’s education, language results, work history, status and family details wherever a spouse or partner factor applies, including where a report is viewed or shared.
4. Choose Invite. The page confirms Household invite sent.

Sending the invite is your consent. Your partner’s is given when they accept.

The row then tracks the invite:

Status	What it shows	Actions
Not invited	No invite has been sent yet.	Invite
Invite sent	When it was sent and when it expires	Resend, Revoke
Invite expired	When it expired. You can resend.	Resend, Revoke
Disconnected	Previously connected. You can re-invite.	Re-invite

An invite lasts 14 days. Revoke asks Revoke this invite? first, and the link in the email stops working.

If your partner already has a Lexpoint account and their own family record of you has a different email or date of birth, the invite is stopped before it is sent. An Invite Blocked dialog names the field that conflicts. Agree on the correct details, update them, and try again. If your partner is already linked with someone else, the page says Invite blocked: this person already has an active household link.

What your partner does

1. They open the link in the invitation email. If they are not signed in, Lexpoint asks them to sign up or sign in first. A new account completes onboarding before the next step.
2. They land on the Household connection page: [Your name] invited you to connect as their spouse (or common-law partner).
3. What connecting does lists what you will both share and what is never shared.
4. They tick the consent box and choose Connect accounts, or Not now to leave without connecting. Nothing is written until they confirm.

They must accept from the invited email address. Signed in as anyone else, the page reads This invite was sent to a different email address and offers Sign in with the invited address. The page also explains an invite that has expired, was withdrawn, or was already accepted, and refuses the person who sent it.

When you are connected

• Both profiles’ marital status is set to Married for a spouse or Common-Law for a common-law partner.
• Both ImmiReports are queued to recalculate with the linked facts.
• Household Account, on Settings → Family, shows your partner’s name, Spouse linked on (or Common-Law Partner linked on) the date, and their email, with Your ImmiReports use each other’s real details for spouse and partner factors. What connecting shares expands the list above.

Disconnect

Either of you can end the link. On Household Account, choose Disconnect and confirm Disconnect this household account? This will remove the active household link.

Disconnecting ends the sharing. Both ImmiReports are queued to recalculate. Until each one does, it keeps the scores it computed from the link. Your partner’s row in Invites & History then reads Disconnected, and you can Re-invite.

Changing your marital status also ends the link

If you change your marital status in Personal information to anything other than Married or Common-Law, the link ends. Both of you lose the spouse or partner row on your family records, and your partner’s marital status is set to Single.

The dashboard prompt

If your family record has a spouse or common-law partner who is not connected and has no pending invite, your dashboard can show Invite [name] to connect your accounts. Invite [name] → opens Invites & History. When no email is on file, Add their email to invite → opens their family record instead. Not now dismisses the prompt, and it does not come back.
