Hello,

If I have entered the pool of express entry with 67 points. When my age is increased to 36 and I lose 1 point, I will remain in the pool or not. Please advise.

Regards

You remain in the pool for one year.

Your express entry profile will be updated once you reach the age of 36. Ultimately, your express entry profile will be ineligible.
Please write IELTS again to meet the eligibility of 67 points

This is incorrect. In this case, the profile becomes ineligible. However, if a_mabrouk10 receives an ITA before turning 37 then the application will still be considered.

I am not sure what is the grading used here.. I know CRS which is over 1200.. Anyway the eligibility tool can always be used

The consensus seems to be that you will no longer be eligible. I concur. To sum, you will remain eligible as long as you get ITA and submit your eAPR before turning 36. This is assuming you lose one point when you turn 36 in the minimum eligibility criteria and get to 66/100 - http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/apply-factors.asp

I suggest that you figure out a way to increase your minimum eligibility points. That is, increase your Education/Language/Experience/Adaptability (and if possible Arranged Employment) points.
