I have already applied under CEC in 2014 and got AOR but waiting for MR and i have created EE profile to check how many points i am getting so now i want to withdraw the EE profile because my application is already under processing under old CEC so its a good idea to withdraw the profile or wait for ITA and apply under EE ? i am really confused now btw i am getting 408 points.

I'm also curious if people who are currently waiting for MRs are considering applying under EE?
Processing time seem to be super fast but I guess you have to pay the fees again though?

yeah paying fees again for the EE is not an issue but if we have any issue with our existing application under old CEC we still have chance to apply under EE but first i have to withdraw the application and create a new profile with a new GC key.

They claim to be fast,but no one yet knows as no one that has applied via EE has PR as yet!
It may be processed in the time they claim,or it may well take a bit longer.

I am also waiting for MR ,I am June applicant, and my application is on second review, because they will be requesting proof of certification in my trade. So I create EE profile, choose option that I dont have any trades certificate and I get 818 points and qualify for CEC. Now Im waiting for next draw Im wondering what I supposed to do next,start application on EE or wait for MR on old CEC...

Complete your EE profile, you will be selected with 818 points and will have 60 days to make an application once you receive the ITA. If your MR comes through under CEC then go for that. Just have the EE profile and ITA as a backup plan. If you don't get the application in 60 days then you can create another EE Profile and no doubt you will get an ITA again.

I am just only look to fastest way to get PR, because I will plan to leave Canada in November/December 2015 for 1/1,5 year. So I would like to finish with the PR till this time. Thats why I decided in June 2014, to apply in CEC for PR, thought that average 13 months of processing time sounds good for me. But now, I strongly think about choosing EE.
Of course paying next time a fee and cost translations of documents isn't any issue for me. Only time

If you have already applied in June 2014,I am guessing that you have AOR,and possibly MR? If so it would be pointless to apply via EE as although they do claim that they will process applications within 6 months,there is always the chance that it may take longer in some cases,just as it does with CEC!
Also in order for you to get PR via EE before November you would need to get picked in the next draw and have everything ready,and again hope that they manage to process it within that 6 month period.

I have a AOR, I didnt get MR. All June applications Got a MR in January/Febraury. My file is under second review from 17th Febraury - they probably want to See proof of certifaction in my trade. But I don't have it. I Have only 1.5 year experience in skills trade NOC 7293 ( in June 2014), now its over 2 year.
During creating a profile on EE, I checked, that I don't have any provincial ticket/certifaction in trade,.i didnt get any points in this Section, and finAlly I scored 818 points With qualificatin under CEC.

Wow,that was fast!
But it is only 3 cases to be fair and you can bet there is NO chance 100% of cases will be done as fast as that.

Even if you get invitation under EE there is no guaranty that CIC will not ask you for the certificates. EE is just selection system but cec rules are basically the same for pre-EE and post-EE. You still need to prove you legal work experience.

I Got invitation under EE, but during creating a profile it qualificatin me under CEC, but on my invitation I found that im good to go under FSW. As I mention early, I didnt check question that I have official certificates in Alberta. Now I have a checklist of document, they don't required any certifaction. As far as I know, they create a checklist document personally.
There is Nothing to me to waste if I try. I am gonna make a medical test in monday, and upload all documents in next week.

Certificates are not required for EE or CEC/FSW, but as per NOC certificates may be required for specific job which you claim experience in. I wish you good luck but keep in mind that they may ask for it at later stage when they start assessing you eligibility.
