Updating Your Express Entry Profile
If you’re in the Express Entry pool, it’s important to keep your profile updated. You can make changes after submission as long as you remain eligible. Enhancing your language test scores or gaining additional work experience could significantly boost your CRS score.
However, providing false or outdated information—even unintentionally—can lead to serious consequences. Misrepresentation may result in the loss of permanent resident status or Canadian citizenship, fines, and even bans from reapplying for immigration.
Always ensure your profile reflects your most current and accurate information to avoid jeopardizing your application. Canada PNP Program – Parisa Erfani
