I stumbled across this question: Has XXX applied to Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada before?"".
The problem is, I HAVE applied for EE twice before but the first time my profile expired and the second time I made some kind of mistake that rendered my profile ineligible so I'm in the middle of creating a new one.
Does that amount to a "No"?

It would be "yes" if you have applied for a work permit, study permit, visitor permit before.

Otherwise "no"

Will I have to enter all of the applications I've filed so far?

I have applied for a study permit, a work permit, visitor's visa.

In this case, do I have to report my previous EE profiles (click "Yes" to the question whether or not I have applied for EE), considering they did not lead to an ITA?

You only have to provide your UCI number after saying "yes"

Again, you did not submit any eAPR's before so those past profiles are irrelevant.

Thanks!
Just to make sure: after I've clicked "Yes" to "Has XXX applied for Express Entry before?" and entered my Express Entry file number, do I enter the UCI from my work and study visas?

Oh, and one more thing:
I have 2 past profiles with EE (one expired and one ineligible), should I enter both numbers in the space? If yes, should I divide them with a semicolon or something..?

You don't have to include ANY EE numbers from your past applications as you did not submit an eAPR.

Only include the UCI number.

So the answer to "Has XXX applied for Express Entry before" is "no"

DelPiero07,

I have applied for study permit but have not received it yet. And I received ITA and I am planning to submit e-APR by 22nd March (will wait for study permit till then). If I do not receive study permit by then, what do I answer to "has XXX applied to immigration before"?
Thank you.

If you have a UCI number answer "yes" otherwise if you submit your eAPR before getting your study permit answer "no" and explain that you applied for one but haven't received it.

Hi , I already submitted my application. But I said No to this as I got confused it was referring to previous PR. I have study/work permits. What Do it Do? Will this lead to rejections?
