Hi I am an international student in Canda.
I want to apply for Express entry. I have my IELTS generals and WES evaluation ready.

While applying, should I choose country of my residence as 'Canada' as I am staying here on study permit, or should it be my home courty India?
Also, should I include the details of existing program in Canada as I am yet to complete it?

Any help would be appreciated

Yes, you should select your country of residence as Canada.

You can't claim any points for your program in Canada since you haven't completed it yet.

Thanks @scylla.
I have updated my EE profile with country as residence as Canada. Also showed current study, just mentioned it as not completed.

Previously I have applied for EE back in 2017. But haven't got an invite.
So, what should I mention for "Have you applied to Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada before?"

Also, for 'Field of study' I don't see the specific option for Electronics Engineers. So, I mentioned it as "Computing/IT".
Hope I can keep it the same. Or should I mention Electronics by selecting 'other' option?

The answer to the first question is no. You have not previously applied.

I don't know the answer to the second question.
