It's officially there on IRCC website in FAQs section. It quotes,
"
I applied before Express Entry was launched, but my application was returned because it was incomplete (or the cap was reached). Do I answer “yes” or “no” to the “have you previously submitted an application” question?
If you got a letter from us that confirms your previous application is being processed, you should answer “yes.”

If you did not get this letter, you should answer “no.” If the application was never formally accepted for processing, we don’t count it as an application.
"
So this applies for multiple EE profiles as well...the profile never went to IRCC for processing hence technically you have never applied for PR..
I think this answers all permutations and combinations related to this query...cheers..!!

and if a profile was ineligible? as it also came with a letter that at this time you are ineligible for EE.

Is this auto generated or it first goes to IRCC for processing first?

thanks

that's auto generated...it only goes to IRCC for processing once you send your post ITA docs....Till the arrival of your ITA it's all automated process..Getting an ITA also does not mean that you have applied that's why till you accept your ITA all EE forms can be updated..it only gets locked after you accept your ITA..!!

and the following applies to expired ineligible profiles as well?

http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/helpcentre/answer.asp?qnum=1164&top=29

reason im asking is because when i log in to my account, i can see all the information from these old expired ineligible profiles. Dont u think if we can have access to this info then so does CIC?

why not..the CIC have access to everything...they may and will look into our ineligible profiles for cross reference..but again that does not mean that with your expired/ineligible profile you had applied for a PR..unless of course you have received that "CIC letter" that your application is in process...which in turn can only happen once you accept your ITA and send your e-APR and other docs..!!

Is there something about that question that isn't clear, or do you just not want to answer honestly? Yes, you did in fact apply for EE before! Say yes, of course.

Any update on the Question??
My situation:

  • My First EE application:
    Applied for Express Entry >>
    Got a Profile number: E000XXXXXX >>
    My profile was marked as Ineligible >>
    Also, received a letter from CIC stating that "...at this time you are ineligible for EE."
  • My Second EE application:
    Applied for Express Entry >>
    Got a NEW Profile number: E000YYYYYY >>
    My profile was marked as Eligible >>
    Got ITA and Accepted ITA >>
    Currently, I am about to complete my submission of documents and pay. So, this is my last doubt!
Questions for New application:
What should my answers be for below two questions under section 'Personal details' >> 'Immigration history and citizenships':
  1. Question 1: Has Mayukh Athmaram applied to Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada before?
    ANSWER I gave: No....... Is this correct???
  2. Question 2: Has Mayukh Athmaram applied for Permanent Residence (PR) before?
    ANSWER I gave: No....... Is this correct???
Please advice!!
