Ielts exam on 6th January-almost over 50% of the ielts results got published near early February or first week of Feb

Ielts exam on 20th January- got published on 2nd February

Ielts exam on 1st February- got published on 14th February

Only exam of 10th February whose results were published on 23rd Feb will affect the draw tomorrow, so if the score falls by 2-3 points then it will mean a good news for us, or if the score drops by one point then its a bad news and no score drop will mean disaster.
This means last draw had effect of almost 2 ielts results.. thats y the avg entrants above 440 were 227 up from 167 in the earlier draw.. if we are right then tomorrow score should be 440 if not below at 3000 ITAs.. considering new entrant at 180 per day above 440.. u r rite we will come to know about the actual trend tomorrow only.. thanks for the details..

IELTS is one factor the other factor is ECA (WES had 3 weeks time when I checked and University of Toronto 12-14 weeks). Initially these times were shorter (WES was 1-2 weeks) when I got them done. These might be better indicators as to people about to join the queue than IELTS scores

Yes, but only if you have claimed points for the same.
I believe there is no place in the EE profile that allows you claim points for secondary applicants work experience except it’s Canadian work. For others you get points for Ielts and Education only. And yes you have to submit proof of work experience. It’s automatically there even if you put it under personal history, that’s Post ITA. Except you don’t put it at all anywhere. I am talking from my own experience. I put my wife’s work history under personal history and when I clicked next for documents required, under her profile, I was asked to upload the proof of work experience. I noticed when I went back and deleted it entirely, the field to upload work experience wasn’t there anymore but to be on a safe side I went back and inputted it and obtained a letter from her supervisor which I now uploaded. Often times people say once you put it under personal history, you don’t need to add supporting documents cos u aren’t claiming points. In reality it’s not that way. In fact for the secondary applicant, everything else, work history n all falls under personal history and there r no seperate fields.

You can change your TRF number post ITA as long as your score does not fall below the draw cutoff.
This is not good advice. I understand There is a reason the date of the exam is requested and you can only get this on the result sheet you are sent. If you input details you didn’t get directly from the results you were sent, you risk rejection and in a worse case scenario, a five year ban. Anything worth doing is worth doing well, so why not Wait a few days and do the proper thing? It will save you a lot of heart ache post ITA.

When I check my result online, I can see the TRF number written down at the bottom of the page and hard copy received in a few days has had the same number? Do you guys not see it online? surprising... https://results.ieltsessentials.com/ is website I have used in past and always seen the TRF number.

I am sure that’s a fairly recent development. When I wrote mine in November last year, I had to wait for the hard copy cos the online results had no TRF. Except there was a way to check that I ws ignorant of.

For now it's bad and this draw would turn disastrous...

My partner's English result recently came out and now we are sitting at 442.
He is also applying for Adult Graduation Program which awards him a High school Graduation Diploma that will give us extra 2 points in a meanwhile.
Do you guys think we can expect the ITA in March?

what additional document did they request...?
Divorce certificate, even though I had already submitted the divorce judgment. But it turns out they also wanted another doc some states in the US issue called a notice of entry of judgment. I submitted all docs filed with the court in the divorce proceeding and that all seemed to be fine for CIC. I moved to NA2 and "We do not need additional documents" the next day.

Hey @PixelDust! Good to hear from you. Hope you are healthy and energetic now :)
