So the first time I created my Express entry profile my listening score was IELTS 7 and my CRS score was 353. I have retaken the IELTS test and received CLB 9 and above in all categories which gives me bonus points. I updated my profile and now my CRS score is 419 (my spouse hasn't done any English tests or degree evaluation so I am 30 points less than I should be). Anyway one of the biggest motivator for me to re-do the test is to bring my points over the 400 point threshold with the hopes that Ontario will send a Notification of Interest to me. I meet the other requirements stated on their website. My question is do you think it is better to recreate my express entry profile? I don't know if since my profile was sitting at less than 400 for a couple months and Ontario would already presumable passed over it (or not see it) if they'd be aware of my profile now that my score is above 400. I am just imagining an IT solution where when profiles are created and it meets the criteria for Ontario they would get it in a queue to view. I am also imagining a scenario where a previously unqualified profile wouldn't make it in the queue because it was already flagged as not meeting the requirements. Anyone received a notification of interest after updating Express Entry profile to be over 400 points?

In fact thats how the system is if your score goes up, OINP will automatically send you PT irrespective of whether your score was low earlier.

But unfortunately OINP has not yet opened their quota for 2017 yet and are not sending any PT notifications yet.

You'll need to wait till they reopen with new quota for the year. All the best.
 
Oh ok...thanks..I was just checking...wouldn't want to miss out.... 8)
