Received a NOI from Ontario but EE profile about to expire

[agrawalakshay]

Hello,

I have a query regarding the ONIP.
I have created my profile in the Express Entry System on 6th of October 2018 and is valid till 5th October 2019. On 1st August 2019, I received a NOI from Ontario for the provincial nomination. Given the situation, that I apply on the https://www.oinp.citizenship.gov.on.ca and submit my application with the necessary and valid documents, I wanted to understand what happens to my profile in the following cases:

1. Considering that my Express Entry profile is about to expire in 60 days, and I don't have enough time to accept PNP (if I receive one) and process, will the NOI be still applicable if I delete my current Express Entry profile and create a new one, so that I have enough time to receive a PNP and then process my ITA?

2. If I receive a PNP and accept that before my profile expires, but the Express Entry draws are held after my profile expires, in this case, will my PNP be still valid or my profile might get an extension since I have received a PNP?

3. What should be done ideally if I have received a NOI just before my Express Entry profile is about to expire? Should I continue with my application or create a new profile and wait for the next NOI issuance round and then apply?

Can you please let me know what should be done. I am waiting in anticipation since my deadline is very close. Thank you!

I also have similar issue, I enquired with Ontario and got below response:

Dear Madam/Sir,



Thank you for your email correspondence to the Ontario Immigrant Nominee Program (OINP) mailbox.



You must maintain a valid profile in the Express Entry system from the time of application until the time of nomination.



Please be advised that if you have received a Notification of Interest (NOI) and your Express Entry profile is about to expire or has expired, you can create a new valid Express Entry profile in order to submit an application via the OINP e-Filing Portal.



Please provide with your application:

• A letter of explanation regarding the expiration of your old Express Entry profile
• The old profile’s Express Entry Number and Job Seeker Validation Code
• A copy of the letter received from Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) explaining why your old profile became ineligible

If you delete your Express Entry profile and create a new one while your application is still being processed by the OINP, you must notify the OINP and provide your new Express Entry number, as well as your new Job Seeker Validation Code.



Please note that the OINP may require you to provide additional or updated documents to support your request. OINP staff will contact you directly should documentation be required.



Thank you for your interest in the Ontario Immigrant Nominee Program.



Sincerely,

Hey Atul,

Yes, create the new Profile once your profile expires and send the details of new Profile and IRCC letter of old profile expiry to Ontario.

OK thanks a lot Shivam. My Profile is getting expired on 20-Aug.. So after that only I can create new profile upon receiving letter from IRCC for Old profile expiry.

You can have only one profile active at a time... Either u can wait till 20th or u can withdraw current profile now and create new one. I waited till my profile expired and then I submitted my OINP application with new profile details.

No, I don't think it's visible to you they just update in their database and once you get Nomination you can use that with the new profile.

Also, do we need to create Letter of explanation, sign, scan , and send or will just old/new details in email do?

Hi ,
I have an issue, so recently my EE profile was cancelled by IRCC due to my Spouse's incomplete PCC from his stay in Australia (We overlooked the fact that we needed a full license history check as well). I had a nomination from Ontario which is due to expire in March 2020 but it is on my old EE profile. I did write to them about the situation (and also got the full license history check from Victoria, Australia). Will they transfer the nomination to new EE profile in such cases? Has anyone been through this?

I had my nomination transferred. My earlier profile on which nomination was processed expired and hence needed to transfer to new profile.
Write to Ontario immigration email is with below details and docs
- old EE profile cancellation letter IRCC
- new EE profile creation letter which mentions you are eligible IRCC
-LOE explaining the case and CRS score impact if any.
They processed my change in about 7-8 days.
