hey......i need a little bit of help
I placed the wrong name of my employer ( i put in the subsidiary company's name while all the documentation is done in the parent company's name) in my express entry profile.....and got an ita for it..........should i decline the ita and withdraw the profile and build a new one? would it be wise to close the i.d altogether and make a new cic i.d?
hmmm Ive mentioned this before, once you have received the ITA, you can't change any details on the profile you made pre-ITA.
Once you have the ITA, info from your ore-ITA profile would be pre-filled onto your post-ITA profile, and I doubt you will be able to make any amendments on those too.
So my suggestion is to decline the ITA, and correct your pre-ITA profile. There is no need to withdraw the profile if you can make the necessary changes. Hope this helps
Please don't decline your ITA. You may not be able to change the information in your EE profile after receiving an ITA, but you CAN change ANYTHING in your eAPR questionnaire (
the portion of the application where information from your EE profile is transferred), as long as you haven't already submitted the eAPR (electronic application for permanent residency).
You're just supposed to be prudent about what you change because, if any of your changes impacts your eligibility or brings your CRS Score to below the 'Cut-off' CRS of the Draw that awarded you the ITA, your application will be refused during processing. But a change in the name of an employer would have absolutely no impact, in anyway, on your eligibility or CRS Score (i.e. even if you had corrected the name of the employer before the Draw, you still would have received the ITA).
Assuming it's not a change that affects your eligibility or points, IRCC is not going to penalize you for changes between the point of creating your EE profile and your eAPR - life happens and changes happen (even when it's not a mistake), and they expect us to update our information to reflect those changes.
I don't even think IRCC compares the information in our EE profiles against our eAPRs (they have the documents we provided and the background check process to prove the validity of our claims in the eAPR), but if you're very worried, you can just attach a letter of explanation, explaining the difference. It won't have any impact.
As long as the score doesn't go up this time we'll be in! Looking forward to both the draw the the updated quota numbers...
