Hey
We got ita on 20 sept. But our consultant mistakenly showed proof of funds requirement of dollar 18800 instead of 15500 for two people. To correct it our consultant created another profile at the same time with corrected proof of fund and we got ita second time also. But we didn't rejected the first one yet. We want to apply in the second profile. Can any one suggest what to do. We should go for first or second one

Hi there, what class of you applying under, FSW, PNP, CEC?

If you can it's very important to withdraw your first profile and the associated job bank profile with the application. If I recall correctly, you can get suspended from applying for PR if you let your first profile expire without withdrawing it.

Also did you submit the first profile and pay? I am pretty sure you can upload a document to replace what was previously uploaded?

You need to stick to correct information. Decline first one and apply through second one.

It's under FSW. We did not pay and submit any document in first profile. Just created another profile simultaneously. So right now we have both the profiles active.
Pls guide me shall we reject the first one and apply only in second one

Are you on CEC? if so you do not require proof of funds and can upload a letter of explanation stating the same. either way you need to withdraw one of the two

We are from FSW. And want to apply under second profile. Shall we do that . It won't create any problem in future? It will give us more time to collect further documents. But is it sure it will not create any problem at the time of applying under second profile

Well just withdraw the first profile and then proceed as normal on the second. I also had to cancel my first profile, it's very easy and quick. You are required to show proof of funds for FSW.

But there will not be an issue of creating both the profile simultaneously. I am bit tensed right now thinking of after rejecting first profile something negative happened and our profile didn't get accepted what we will do. Or there will not be anything negative like that

you're actually not allowed to have two profiles. POF is not that big of an issue (declaring a bit more) but definitely only keep one active profile

1. It doesn't matter. You can have as many profiles as you want. You are only allowed to submit one for PR.
2. You can change POF amount later. At the time you click accept your invitation, a new PR profile will be created for you where you can amend all of the information you want as long as the amendment don't change your scores below the cut-off point for your round. (Which is clearly stated in your ITA letter)

P/S: What kind of consultant did you hire? Don't they even know they can change what ever info after they accept to invitation? My suggestion is getting a new consultant or do it yourself.

this is incorrect

As per the last comment by OP they have ITA with both profiles
It mean only one profile per myCIC account. You can always have multiple myCIC accounts in each of which create one EE profile. That is why the decline rate is very high because many people are doing that (Example @gaganch25 he is going to decline the first profile or let it expire, doesn't matter). I saw a lot of those cases, not a single of them was rejected or having any problem because of that.

My conclusion, myCIC is the central portal. Where EE is a sub application add-on to myCIC, the same as PR. They don't share info. That's why they need to do the shallow clone when you accept your ITA.

1) You just need to withdraw the first profile; it's a very easy process and it should not require explanation to your consultant - just tell him/her 'Withdraw the first profile'. According to IRCC's website, Canada's Immigration Law prohibits having more than one profile, but this doesn't appear to be strictly enforced, nor does it appear to attract penalties as I've never heard of anyone being penalized for it. However, from an ethical standpoint, you should not have more than one profile, especially since, if your score is high enough to earn an ITA, having 2 profiles in the mix could mean that you somehow prevent another person from getting an ITA if your one extra profile somehow sets the Draw's CRS Cut-off 1-point higher.

Also, please note that submitting an Express Entry profile is not the same as submitting an application. Submitting an Express Entry profile is just an 'expression of interest'. It does not constitute a formal application to IRCC (the Canadian government) and there are no fees to be paid over to the Canadian government or documents to be submitted at this time. It's only after you receive an ITA and submit the eAPR (electronic application for permanent residence) that you pay fees and submit documents - this is when you will have been considered to have submitted an application for permanent residence, not before.

2) If your consultant felt the need to create a new profile for that simple mistake, this is an indication that you need a new consultant. If the error was realized before receipt of the ITA, all he/she had to do was go in and edit the EE profile; if the error was realized after receipt of the ITA, all he/she had to do was edit the eAPR questionnaire. Did your consultant charge you when he/she created this new profile? Additionally, the fact that your first incorrect profile hasn't yet been withdrawn is also indication that your consultant doesn't know what he/she is doing...

just because it's feasible doesn't mean it's okay :) not to mention having literally two ITAs. Consultant should've closed the first account the moment he created a new one.
Unless they forgot their password or in my case created an account with my spouse as primary until we got my documents back and realized we were better off going on with me as primary, there's advantage to creating multiple profiles. it's just hogging places and taking the chance away from others.

I second that. I don't like attacking consultants and usually recommend against them but this was such a silly thing and there was no need to cause this entire mess at all. He either is really new at this in which case should be ditched, otherwise he made some other big mistake, he should be ditched as well.
