Hi Everyone,

I have done my studies in Canada and right now on Work Permit. I am creating my Express Entry profile and got the question:

"Has xxxxxxxx applied to Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada before? "

Should I answer Yes or No?
Please help me to answer this question.

**********************************************************************************************************************************************************
Also the one major doubt that I have is that I created the EE profile before (6 months back) and not it got ineligible due to insufficient funds I mention in the profile.

So my question is in my new EE profile creation, what should I answer for below questions?

Has xxxxxxxxx applied for Express Entry before? Should I say Yes or NO

Please provide the Express Entry file number ? Should I give previous Express Entry Profile number or say No for above question.

Any help or guidance is appreciated.

Thanks

Hi Taran,

For below question I answered "yes", since I applied for Study and Work visa.
"Has xxxxxxxx applied to Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada before? "

But now I have doubt in below questions. Can you please guide me on this?
Has xxxxxxxxx applied for Express Entry before? Should I say Yes or NO, I created the EE profile before and it was there in the pool for 6 months, and then it becomes ineligible.

Please provide the Express Entry file number ? Should I give previous Express Entry Profile number or say No for above question.

Applying and creating a profile are two separate things.

Hi DelPeiro07,

I did the same mistake. I have applied for visitor visa long back. While applying for express entry profile, I answered NO as I thought the question for appying citizenship and other permits. After I have recieved ITA, I am in dilemma whether to update the question as "YES". If I update the question as "Yes", will there be any issue after submission of the application.

Please advise.
Hi ashwinkumarbrg,

I made the same error, I do have a visitor visa for Canada but selected "NO" as an option, should I change my response or will the application be processed without any problems?
Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks, Karan.
