The ITA targets (averaging close to 90K each year) are pretty logical and based on that the CRS cut off would surely come down from the current range to the lower 400's in 2018.

The factor which you are missing to include is the number of applicants who would be additionally applying for Canada PR due to the lowering of the CRS cut offs. When the cut-offs start hovering around the 400-420 range, so many more folks would start applying as they see a better chance of migrating to Canada and consultancies are going to throw advertisements non-stop to pull in more applicants.

So, to predict what will happen till 2020 would be a far fetched prediction.

I still stick with my prediction for 2018 with the lowest CRS cut off ranging between 401-410.


You read my mind buddy.
 
Oh Boy.!! I just read your username as "Samurai" then realized later that it's "Sai-Murali". :D:D
you are not the only one :):)
 
Hi all,

I am new to this forum. Can anybody tell me when is the 79th draw?


You need to check the trend of last draws and come up with a speculative draw date as 29th Nov. We are not sure of it but, It happens mostly on every wednesday every fortnight.

thanks for the info !!
 
That was bound to happen...

On the good side, that means more ITAs for FSWs until it opens again. :p

Not to mention, there would also be a substantial decrease in cut-off. :);)
 
:p:p:p:p:p
I also feel the same but when I checked 2016 draws, there was a draw on Dec 16 and then on Dec 22
So if not Nov 29 and Dec 6, there might be consecutive draws on Dec 13 and Dec 20 but there will be a consecutive draw before the year ends for sure;);)


Everyone predicting back to back draws in dec, Will have a party invite from my side, IF - the CRS goes below 429. I am also looking for a suitable DJ for the party. Please lend your candidature.:D
 
Not really a good news. ....

I beg to differ.

Increase in a minimum wage won't lead to job loss. Though am not an expert , am well aware that an economy is a cycle. People need money to purchase , once attained they are more susceptible to purchase which was also emphasized in the article. Certain items which once wasn't affordable to low wage employees becomes affordable now , which directly proportionate to increase in purchase power thus gives the upward curve in an economy. In order for the country to thrive, there should be constant flow of cash between people and companies. If the cash flow witness any block, there would be collapse. If you cut the jobs, then less people would be afford to buy goods, hence the economy would tend to deteriorate sooner than later.

There is also a possibility that companies will increase the price of the product citing this wage structure, hence job losses again gets nullified.
Canada is not the only country which witnessed the increase in minimum wage structure. Just a google search will give you the list of countries which raised the bar and their employment opportunities still remains unperturbed.

If you are not convinced with my opinions I can understand it's because of my juvenile knowledge on the subject :):). But you can be certain that, there were profound people out there who very well realize that job losses would cause certain inflation. I believe, the Canadian government wouldn't want that.

Stay optimistic. ;);)
