Finally submitted my EE Profile yesterday and got a message/attachment in my CIC account to register with the Job Bank.
Registered on the Job Bank with my EE profile number and JOB CODE. I got a second message and attachment in my CIC account. Part of the message reads "Congratulations! You have been accepted to the Express Entry pool of candidates".
However my Profile/Application Status is still showing "Pending Additional Criteria". I don't know if it usually takes time for the status to change to "OPEN" or there something i have to do?

Is it because of "two post secondary qualifications where one should be at least of three years"?

I have following qualifications:

1-BA (Hons) Business Administration=Equivalent to four years Canadian Bachelor degree. (Assessed by WES)
2-BA (Pass) = Equivalent to two years Associate degree from Canadian University. (Assessed by CES)

It takes a while for it to change to 'open'.
You shouldn't have anything to worry about.

How do you mean? You're not seeing the score you expected?

yup the score should be 364 but it is appearing 344 and status of EE profile is showing "Pending Additional Criteria"

Weird. Pending additional criteria is normal for a new profile.
Check your profile again and see what you missed. Did you use the CRS tool to calculate 364 or u did manually?

it is because, you did a mistake. you have to select two or more with one minimum 3 years or more for both of them.

reference, I checked it earlier in this forum and cic website and personal experience too, and when u update, wait for 24 hours.

sir I did it so. I choose two or more with minimum 3 years or more for both of the qualifications.by the way I have created my profile recently and 24 hours are not passed.
 
then wait for 24 hours.
when the same thing happened to me, it didn't change even after 24 hours. So. I created a new profile and registered again and all and withdrew the old profile.
