PNP nomination question in your EE profile greyed out after accepting the nomination

Step-by-Step

After accepting a Provincial Nominee Program (PNP) nomination, some applicants notice their Express Entry (EE) profile still shows "No" for the question about receiving a provincial nomination — and that the field is greyed out and can't be manually edited.

What group members advised:
  1. You don't need to manually change that field. If your 600 additional CRS points have already been correctly loaded onto your profile (visible in your CRS breakdown), the system has registered the nomination even if the specific yes/no question still displays the old answer.

  2. Just proceed with the rest of your profile as normal. The greyed-out field is a display quirk, not a sign that your nomination wasn't properly linked.


If you're ever unsure whether your points are actually reflected, the safest check is to look at your CRS score breakdown directly rather than relying on that one question's display.

Dos, Don'ts & Tips

  • Tip: Verify your nomination is counted by checking your CRS score breakdown for the +600 points, not by trying to force-edit a greyed-out field.
  • Don't: Don't panic if a status question in your EE profile appears outdated — it may just be a display issue once your points are already loaded.
