Hi Seniors,
Can someone please comment on this ?

I heard that if one has applied for FSWP in 2014, and also is applying for ExpressEntry, chances are that they might cancel one another ?
Is there any such possibility ?

Eagerly awaiting a reply !

Regards,
Andy

30. I am currently waiting for my application for permanent residence to be processed in the Federal Skilled Worker Program. Can I submit an Express Entry profile?

You may submit a new Express Entry profile, but it is not necessary. However, we will not refund any processing fees paid related to your original application. Your existing application will be processed based on the rules in place at the time you applied.

If you choose to create an Express Entry profile and are invited to apply, you will be required to submit a new application for permanent residence and the associated processing fees.

EE is gateway to FSWP or CEC. Once EE draw is declared, CIC will tell you to apply under which category, and then you will enter either FSWP or CEC. Nothing is clashing in EE.
