Hello All,

I got my webform answered today. I raised it on January 14.

In addition, we verified the information on file and can confirm that:

  • The responsible office has not started verifying if your application meets the eligibility requirementsunder the immigration program for which you have applied,

@chakrat Since you have spent time and resources on your current application, try and salvage it by providing a new letter via webform and explain why the previous one was not on letterhead.

Also, on the side create a new profile and enter the pool, in case your current application is rejected, you can submit the new one and not waste time. Also, if a new draw happens and the score is low, you can proceed with it. In the new profile, since the CRS scores are going so low, you can commit the point for arranged employment completely if you want.
really, can one create new profile and enter to the pool while ongoing PR application is in progress? I thought we can't have multiple profile with IRCC for express entry?

You will only have one profile, as your other profile, for which you have filed the application is no longer a profile and is not on the pool.

There is no bar as such. You can create multiple profile, with you as the PA and not the one as your spouse as PA. Technically they re different profiles.

Also, once you submit an application, the profile is no longer in the pool, so there is nothing stopping you from creating another profile. What IRCC does not want you doing is creating multiple profiles with the same details. You can do it, but not recommended and not ideal either.
