I applied before Express Entry was launched, but my application was returned because it was incomplete (or the cap was reached). Do I answer “yes” or “no” to the “have you previously submitted an application” question?
If you got a letter from us that confirms your previous application is being processed, you should answer “yes.”

If you did not get this letter, you should answer “no.” If the application was never formally accepted for processing, we don’t count it as an application.

So this applies for multiple EE profiles as well...the profile never went to IRCC for processing hence technically you have never applied for PR..
I think this answers all permutations and combinations related to this query...cheers..!!
