Technically, no. The draw date and time was Jan 10th itself instead of Jan 9th. That too after a 3 week draw from Dec 19 2018. We could be seeing the same here today.
Ray of Hope - 118th Draw
- Thread starter NikSharma01
- Start date
CIC is simply stretchhing the time now, in order to deal with the excessive backlog and clear the applications. However, because of this tactic a huge backlog is likely to gather now.
Date and time of round: October 29, 2018 at 16:36:30 UTC (Monday)
Date and time of round: November 15, 2018 at 14:06:07 UTC (Thursday)
Lol, let's give it a try then!Our hopes of a 1-week draw seem to be resulting in a 4-week draw. Now, let's hope for 3-4 week gap draw. Will this result in a one week draw

Yes yes.. 2018 I know... That's why I said that for 2019 it will be a first..
But seems like we already had that on 10th Jan.
Please keep ROH alive, something big is definitely coming!
I have just received NOI from Ontario (French stream). However i am in doubt about the next step to take.
I was previously @CRS 450 and lost points this month due to birthday. Now my wife has booked already Tcf exam on 24 june with the results expected 4 weeks later. If she max out i can regain the points losts and be at 450~451. Since i have only 45days to accept NOI, my question is should i go for OINP route now or wait July end hoping that CRS will have decreased by then (and save additional $1500 pnp fees and maybe processing time)
Thanks for your advices

Don't rely on the "IF" factor, Ontario is a best option. I recommend you to go for it.

How confident are you about your score reaching 450-451?
450+ score is pretty decent. Even if the score comes too high, it will definitely reach 450 within a month or 2 with 3350 ITAs. But you have to consider the cutoff date as well.
You should proceed with OINP route (highly recommended), don't wait for CRS to drop at 450. The current trend of CIC is highly unpredictable and nobody knows what are they're trying to do with 3-4 week gaps now.

IRCC will not have the NOI information in its website. You have to check it in the provincial website. I shared the link earlier today.
Precisely, that is what I feel. With each missing draw, CIC has to conduct b2b or increase ITA's. But, the cut off's gonna be bit high. But I have no worries as long as the ITA's are increased to 3900. The CRS will eventually come down to mid 440's sooner than later.

I hope you are right man. Being stuck at 449 and having court-side seats to the whole thing but not being able to participate sucks!
