Hi,

When I first created my EE profile, I mentioned I would be getting CAD12K. But since CIC had updated the amount from 12K to 12.3K, my profile was rightly deemed ineligible!

I went ahead and created a new EE profile in my account since the ineligible profile could no longer be edited.
In the new application, when asked about if I had previously applied for EE, I mentioned NO.

Do I need to change this information to YES and provide the previous Application Number and UCI Number?

Kindly help !!!!

It does not ask you if you have applied for EE profile (i,e. entering the pool), it asks you if have applied to Cic (meaning an application, which in case of EE is eAPR that you submit AFTER getting invite). Ineligible profiles need not be declared.

To quote CiC "If the application was never formally accepted for processing, we don’t count it as an application."
