Can we file express entry profile while on study visa

[Deleted member 556103]

Hello seniors ,
I have applied for a year post graduate diploma course in toronto which is due to start on Jan 2016. My intention is to get PR and settle in Canada.I was wondering ,is it possible to file for PR express entry while on study visa(in between the course ) . or do I have to wait for mycourse to be completed. I have already given my ielts and my score is around 375 . so can I file my express entry profile ?

u can create express entry profile anytime just make sure u dont apply for express entry before u get study visa just to make sure u dont seem like an immigrant during ur study permit application.

thanks . I was hoping for an answer from you . Someone in India told me that filling PR on a study visa always leads to rejection .

well u have to qualify for express entry first... I am assuming u have experience for FSW(outside canada experience) as u wont qualify for CEC till u get canadian experience
