That changing of languages might be the issue why your account went invisible for Ontario (it might be, that they only check fresh accounts maybe every 2-3 days. in that case you switched to English when they check for it and returned to French only after your account was too old).
Try to create it again with keeping French as first language. In your case, the difference of points between those 2 shall be small (and I would even say, that you are better off point wise with French).
Thank you once more for very valuable advices and time!

Hello ,

I can't update my express entry profile with my husband's ielts results . In fact , the system lets me update the info , but then there is no submit button for the new info get transmitted and incorporated in my profile. Am I doing something wrong or is this a system problem ?

No news from OINP , I am getting worried.

Hello all ! After having crawled through dozens of pages for the past month, it is time for me to officially introduce myself :)
As many of you i am looking after FSSW stream for Ontario.

Here are the following details :
EE Profile created on 20 March 2017
TEF : CLB 10 - define as 1st language in my EE profile
IELTS : CLB 9 - define as 2nd language
ECA (from CES) : Master
NOC : 0213
Work Experience : 6+ years
Province selected : only Ontario
Language you feel more at ease: French
CRS score : 446

Job Bank profile created and appearing in my EE profile.
Letter from CIC confirming my acceptance in the EE pool.
Still no Provincial / Territorial Notification of Interest (PT NOI) from Ontario...but i believe 2 days is still too early + I keep reading that it has been since end February that there was no PT NOI...

I am still wondering the true benefits of a Province Nomination versus just picking up the ITA from CIC (as 446 score could get ITA as past thresholds were 434/441/447). Some argue that it is a waste of time + 1,500 CAD for just 600 bonus points + being locked to Ontario province.

However, I still believe that a Province Nomination means a PR profile that matched higher requirements / criteria of selection. Which could still be handy whenever compared with a standard CIC PR.

What do you think ? Looking for your inputs and hopefully more good news !
PS : If i can help in anyway people on my past experience on TEF / IELTS / ECA and all, feel free to shoot me :)

Worst case scenario, you will have to re create whole EE profile and put everything there including those IELTS. Then you can inform Ontario about the issue and also about your new EE number. Changing EE is not a problem for Ontario (as long as you will keep all other data like in the old one).
Good luck

If you get direct ITA go for it. PNP is either handy if:
1. by the time the score will drop to your level you have also PNP (not just NOI). Then you combine and use it as a bit additional safety.
2. your score is way too low and PNP is the only way.

Yes PNP as such is safer and gives you additional shot. Other than that, there is no other advantage.
Nothing is stopping you to settle down in Ontario anyway.

Good luck there.

You will see. Go after reference letters, so that you are ready. Also PCC from other countries (if you need them), will be handy.

Vensak , thanks for your reply , but at this point I am terribly stressed and I do not want to think about recreating my profile .
I don't know if this has anything to do with the new question concerning which language one is most at ease that has popped up in the profile ( it didi not exist when i submited it) . I am trying to think whether my not updating the ielts score , might interfere or impede in some way with OINP nomination. I am not sure ...

Thanks anyway.

1. that question with languages is new and it really does not matter what will you choose.
2. you have to update your IELTS in EE as well - they will compare it with your profile as they want to make sure, that your profile will be eligible.
3. calm down, Ontario is rather understanding and there is really no problem to say, that you were somehow unable to update the old one, so you had to create a new one as requested.
There were plenty people that had to recreate their profiles, because they had expired and Ontario did not have problem to send the nomination to the new profile.
