Thanks @SithLord @NikSharma01 ... So this means, that for OINP PNP it will take around 3 months, and then for PR it will take additional 6 months..... Is this inference correct?
Preparing packet for OINP 15 days to 1 month
OINP decision 2-3 months
Getting documents for ITA prepared - 1 month
ITA processing, PPR etc - 3-6 months
Then, FLY! :)

In my opinion, that'd be the timeframe without request for documents from CIC

Although its rare but remark can decrease scores.. the experience I had at IDP test center, things I have heard about first time test taker with IDP, and massive power of my bad luck.. I would hold on to the scores I have for some time before reattempt..

Yes! To Hope!:cool:

Hope they reimburse the re-evaluation money on decrease too :)

Are you kidding me? :p You are getting in next draw
Seriously, I am scared too, I have an active EE profile since the last two draws. Looking at previous scores I was pretty confident that I'll get in the draw right after completing my profile. Sitting at 453! :(

Lol! 453 is a pretty safe score, nodoubt. I wonder why people with 450+ scores are even getting scared, when they will be picked in the next draw, most probabely. Look at us, we people , with the range of 441-445, are sitting here and waiting patiently for our turns to guarantee the ITAs within the few months with the Rays of Hope, all we have! All of you with 450+ CRS must atleast get encouraged after looking at us! :p:rolleyes:

You are one of the safest people on the forum.. please start reading posts on process after receiving ITA.. here's where you could get confidence - https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/immigrate-canada/express-entry/submit-profile/rounds-invitations/results-previous.html

There is a clear evidence that 450+ applicants have increased in number.

Last year, the average 450+ applications were in the range of 160-180 per day. This year, it's 180-240 per day.

The aggregate interest in moving to Canada has increased which is what, in conjunction with lower per-draw intake, has taken cut-off higher.

I am not sure if PNP quota is different from FSW, CEC and FST quota. If so, they should increase the intake in each draw. The PNP target is very high but they don't really fill in those many slots each year.

The aggregation of all these factors is making 450+ folks uncertain and uneasy.

I was stuck at 435 for months before I finally made it.

Honestly, I wouldn't even worry too much as 453 is an awesome score. Seriously, don't understand why 450+ scores people are scared. They should be screaming their lungs out because that is a safe score and anyone with 450+ is eventually getting in :p

The ones who actually need to worry are 440-445 folks :)

But still they are on the safe side and we're not! Seriously, I wish some miracles must happen for all of us.

452 is a pretty high score. You're definitely getting in next draw. If I were you, I will start getting PCC and upfront medicals
Hi Can we get the PCC and upfront medical without having the ITA in Canada. As per the update they ask for ITA to process PCC (BLS) and medical. Can you pls confirm if

Yes, but only if you're 100% sure you will get ITA in the next draw.

I got my PCC and medicals upfront a week before the ITA :)

Yea remember place like Alberta needs people so this process faster there unlike Ontario. Lol. This place it pack
Oh yes that is true. Ontario and British Columbia are the most preferred provinces for immigrants so understandable the immigration procedures are longer here.
