Guys I was wondering why does cic stick on the same number of invitations 2750:(
Will this number be changed in 2018:eek:
I am expecting CIC to increase the ITAs issued to 3250 or 3750 from Jan onwards. Fingers crossed!

Hello Guys,
Just a Query. I am married now and staying in Canada with my spouse on open work permit. Our score is 425 right now. but If I apply with "spouse not accompanying" score rises up to 453. May I know If I can apply like " Spouse not-accompanying" and add her after getting ITA??

If you add your spouse after the ITA and before the eAPR, your CRS will be recalculated. Good Luck!

To everyone who didn't get an ITA today just think of it as a way to give you a Christmas holiday without the fuss of getting documents together.
The next draw will probably be next year. A new year with new possibilities.
Let's all relax and enjoy the rest of 2017

My permutation is complete and good News for people with lower scores.

I estimated 220 candidates left in the 441 to 450 range after the last draw.

For the January 3rd draw, I assumed that number of people entering the pool between now and January 3 will either be at historical level or even lower. ( This is due to the following factors, lower number of ECA will be issued, IELTS result to be released and the fact that lower number of working days will affect a lot of people's submission due to ECA and IELTS).

2750 ITAs Cut off will be 437 +/- 2

3000+ ITA Cut off will be 434 +/- 2

All this is just logic but if you are sitting at 430+ the chances are you will get your ITA by third week in January.

Historically, 2015, 2016 and 2017, there is a consecutive draw in the first two weeks of January and that will lower the CRS.

Anyways don’t take my estimations serious just see it as a possible guide.

Thanks.


Just for those who will ask, below is my last estimation for today's draw.

2750 ITA cut off 447 -/+ 2
3000+ ITA cut off 441-/+ 2

Experts please advice:
After receiving the ITA what would be the procedure, is it like first all the verification will be done and I will get a confirmation that the verification part is complete and then I can be sure that I will get my Visa.
I am not sure when to give resignation that is why I want to know, if anyone have any idea, please advice.

Changing accompanying to non accompanying and back is not the change in the family composition. So yes your score could be recalculated. Also it would be rather difficult to explain, why your spouse does not want to stay in Canada.

Did you think about more simple solutions like:

Your spouse will take the language test / test and get the ECA as well.

Good luck

Guys,

Please help, I'm losing all hope! :( My last chance for an ITA before my working holiday visa runs out is in the (possible) January 3rd draw. My CRS is 438. Do you think I have a chance? I don't want to leave!!

Thanks!
