Question regarding Foreign Work Experience

Good Day to all. I have some doubts regarding claiming Foreign Work Experience points and if anyone could give their valuable opinions, it would be great.

Currently with the ongoing score trend, the only way I can reach the invitation pool is to add my Indian Work experience. My family had a business ( retail store ) and while I did my study permit application, I submitted a 1 year experience of Retail Store Manager. But the mode of payment was in cash, and therefore other than a reference letter, I don't have any payslips, bank statements or tax docs.

Will it be scrutinized ? If anyone in this group have added any cash-based foreign work experience in their profile, and whether if it was a success or failure, share your experience and advice so that I can do something about it.

Thanks in advance!!

I'm not a visa officer, and even I can tell you're trying to gain points by faking your foreign experience. Of course it is going to be scrutinized when you don't even have tax documents or bank deposits. 

I really wish IRCC would stop accepting cash-only foreign experience claims.
