Express Entry For Asylum Claimants

[Misunderstood_24]

Is it possible to go through express entry process as a refugee claimant?
I understand that experience gotten as a claimant does not count but I already have more than one year full time experience before becoming claiming asylum and was wondering if I still qualify after getting an ITA. Has anyone gone through this route before and was it successful?

No, you cannot apply as a refugee claimant in Canada. You wait for PR after applying as a protected person.

You no longer qualify for economic PR pathways as an asylum claimants. Claiming asylum was a big mistake unless you have strong grounds.
