EI benefits in express entry

[AlexMorris]

Hi,
I laid off yesterday from my full time job and I will apply for EI if I am eligible.
Here is my status, I am in Canada with work permit ( valid till June) and I am in express entry pool from Canadian experience category with 1 year work experience and hopefully I will get ITA in coming weeks.
My question is , If I get EI help during PR process could it have any negative effect on my PR application?
Thank you.

No, EI would not affect a PR app.

Thanks a lot. I will give a call to EI centre tomorrow.
