Application Status: Pending additional criteria

[mohitvashisth]

Hi

I have created my EE profile on Saturday night, the status showing is "pending additional criteria". I registered on Job bank and activated my job profile just now on Monday morning.
Please let me know what is meant by Application status showing "pending additional criteria"? Am I not in EE pool till now, what is missing from my end?
Appreciate your help in advance.

Warm Regards

I have got the message that "Congratulations! You have been accepted in the Express Entry pool of candidates." still the Application status is Pending Additional Criteria. What does this mean.

Hi Mohit,

Did you the status change? I am in the same situation now. I created the profile on Apr 10th with CRS 443. I was surprised that I didn't get the ITA on Apr 12th since the cut-off was 423. Then I realized that my application status is - Pending additional criteria and Job Bank registration status is - We are processing your Job Bank registration. We will send you a message when your status is updated.

Please help.

Hi,
I created EE profile, but till now have not received any correspondence regarding the EE profile ID or job seeker validation code. Due to this Iam not able to apply to Job bank. It has been more than 12hours. Can you please let me know anything I should check to make sure.

Thanks
Vishwa

I thought that my brother alone was facing this issue, we submitted his profile last night and since then it has been 23 hours and still no corresspondence from them, their system is down i guess, do Report a technical issue from your profile. Still need that Job Seeker code as i'm worried that there might be a draw tomorrow and we guys will miss it due to this technical glitch.

Thanks Mohit.....ohh.... Some place i read that Draw might be around 24th.
Once we get the job code and create an profile in Job bank, how long it might take to move our profile to common pool?
Can you also please share the Job bank link also.

Thanks
Vishwa

Hey Vishwa,
I just withdrew my brothers profile and created a new one and got the EE profile ID & job seeker validation code within a minute.

After withdrawing your current profile you will see Express Entry option again, create a new profile just like last time and submit, it took us only 5-7 minutes to complete a new profile.

Thank you. I created a new profile and this time I got Correspondence. After that created profile in job bank as well and I got 'Welcome to Express Entry' email.
But Iam not able to see the points in 'Express Entry Profile Details' and Job Bank registration shows yet to register. Is that fine?

Job Bank registration shows yet to register, this is fine but you should be able to see the points right away, does it show that you have met minumum review criteria ?

 

[VishwanathKS]

Minimum entry criteria it shows You meet the minimum entry criteria.

I think i missed this time the lottery chance. Even though I submitted on 19th of April from time calculation looks like it is after lottery was conducted.
Your brother has got his ITA?
