Hi Mosadarey and All,
Once the profile becomes ineligible, no one can help. A new profile has to be created.
Please don't worry and do not panic, but follow below steps.
Please note, below steps were followed by me as my nomination letter had 4-digit NOC, and it was received after cut-off date of 16-Nov-2022.
If your nomination letter has 5-digit NOC, you can (only) skip step 4.
Steps to follow:
1. Create new express entry profile, with all updated information like POF, etc. Use new 5-digit NOC as per your profession (NOT 93888) while creating work history. List everything that adds for your CRS.
2. On the question where it asks about provincial nomination, DO NOT select Yes.
Select NO.
3. Submit the profile. You will receive
NEW:
a. Express entry profile number, and
b. Job seeker validation code
4. If your provincial nomination letter has:
a. 5-digit NOC: please skip this step.
b. 4-digit NOC: then go to your NEW express entry profile, and update NOC under work history to 93888. This NOC is 93888 – PNP Facilitation / PCP Facilitation.
Please submit / transmit the changes on your NEW express entry profile.
5. To verify NEW express entry profile:
Once submitted, please log-off from the IRCC portal, close browser. Open browser again and login to cross check all changes (till this step) have been saved and profile is still eligible or in the pool.
6. As you already have PNP nomination letter, follow the steps listed by province to request re-issue of the nomination letter with NEW Express entry profile number, and Job seeker validation code.
Kindly provide LOE with letter from IRCC as to why new profile was created.
You can attach below 2 letters:
a. Welcome letter from the OLD express entry profile, and letter that mentions your profile is ineligible.
b. Welcome letter from NEW profile, and the one that has NEW Express entry profile number and Job seeker validation code.
In LOE, you can explain that you weren't able to 'Accept' the invite due to some technical issue. provide screenshot if possible. Hence, you created a new profile, and request them to re-issue nomination letter AND provide nomination on new express entry profile.
Different province may have different process. Do check if any other document or step needs to be followed along with step 6 above for your province.
(I read somewhere that only Alberta province doesn't re-issue nomination letter. But, I'm not sure though. Please re-check).
Once province accepts the request, they will re-issue nomination letter and also nominate under NEW express entry profile. You can accept that nomination, and 600 points shall be added soon to your CRS.
Hope this helps.
Please do not thank me, thank God and creator of this forum, that we are able to share solutions.
