Adding LMIA to Express Entry rendered it Ineligible?

[Beleko]

Hello all,

I applied for Express Entry on April 2016. I was eligible, but with a not-too-high score of 478, as I still didn't have an LMIA. Last week I finally got a positive LMIA, so today I opened my Express Entry application and edited it to add my LMIA information. However, minutes later I got a message from CIC explaining that my profile was now ineligible. With no explanation at all. As my Internet browser had been acting weird during the update process, not saving some of the information sometimes, I was afraid I might've written something wrong. So I created a new profile, making sure that everything was right, and applied again... but a few hours later, I once again got a message saying that it was ineligible. I repeated this process, and the result was the same.

Has this happened to anyone here? Am I supposed to wait before making another application? I feel so lost and helpless.

One more thing. I called the Call Centre and was told to ask using the web form... and that it takes 5 to 10 days to get an answer. Is there a faster way of knowing why an application failed?

Thanks!

Sorry, I didn't know about that topic. Thank you!

Did you check if your POF(proof of funds) still equal or above minimum specified by CIC ? When you applied on EE(express entry) your POF was fine at time, but CIC constantly changes minimum requirements. This way if at the time you updated your profile with LMIA you forgot to update your POF to meet new requirements also, it could handle your application ineligible.

I shall check this, thanks!

If I remember correctly from another thread you done ECA which is why you are ineligible. For FSW you need the right amount of funds and an ECA. If you have one year canadian experience then set your funds to 0 and you'll be fine.
