Input required on getting invitation in CEC instead of FSW

[Queries]

Hi Experts,

General Question :
If a candidate is eligible for CEC as well as FSW we have seen he will get invitation in FSW category.... Can you please suggest what changes we can do in our EE profile so that we get invite in CEC category.

Case specific Question : :
I have applied for OOPNP and opted to be accessed on CEC category as i was eligible for both CEC and FSW. I am hopeful that i will get nominated (like everyone ;D ). So once we receive the nomination we will definitely get invitation in next draw. Can I change anything in my EE profile after receiving nomination so that i will get invite in CEC category...

Suggestions Please ....

It shouldn't really matter because PNP will give you 600 points only n won't restrict you for FSW or CEC only.

Rest wait for others advice on this as I could be wrong too

Don't do it. Just put NO for Full time job offer and zero for funds.
I did mine and it worked now I'm eligible for CEC only

If you have PNP, you can do that. My husband got invited with LIMA under CEC without ECA (even though he had it done with wes). Our lawyer put the POF of $15000 on the application ,and uploaded the offer of employment since he is a LIMA holder. He got his COPR.
Since you already provided POF for your PNP, I agree with you that you should not say "no" to POF question on your EE profile once you get your PNP.

I agree with you that if he wants to get invited under CEC now, he should include his ECA and put zero for fund. Since he has no Lima, he will answer "no" to job offer anyway.

I really do think each individual case is different. I'm not disputing how yours worked out but, I put yes to job offer (have LMIA) and yes to funds $20,000+ for 2 applicants, NO to ECA (assessed but not used) and was invited under CEC only. Never Eligible for FSW. I'm wondering is it because people are using ECA for additional points, this is the reason you meet FSW aswell as CEC?
