Hi All,

I was wondering if I can stay in the express entry pool after my PGWP expires and I go back to my home country. Or would it automatically become ineligible after my PGWP exprires.

And if the above said is not true. Would I be able to make another profile sitting in my home country after the current one expires in case I don't receive an ITA.

Your profile only expires one year after it is created, irrespective of where you are.

Yes you can make a new profile when the first expires

pgwp has nothing to do with your ee profile

Thank you

So does that means I would have to apply for my PR from back home in case I receive an ITA.
