Is Express Entry Profile important to apply for Provinces under PNP programs?

[Jas29]

Hey,


I hail from India and seek PR in Canada. Before making Express Entry Profile, i have calculated my CRS points via CIC website. It shows that i could get a maximum 441 CRS points if i score CLB 10 in IELTS. Thus, i shifted my focus on PNP programs. I want to know if making an express entry profile mandatory to apply for PNP programs or separate process is there for PNP. I am a writer and aiming for Ontario.

You are in the 440 range so you have good odds of getting invited by many provinces including Ontario. Pass your IELTS as soon as possible and create an Express Entry profile, make sure you get at least CLB 9.
At this time unless you have a job offer no streams are open to you with Ontario out of Express Entry. So that would be your way in.
