Ray of Hope - 147th Draw - CEC

[13nitinsharma]

UPDATE: MEDICALS HAVE BEEN RESTARTED IN INDIA

I have been getting constant updates from applicants today, that people are able to book medicals appointment from Monday onward. This update is confirmed for CIC approved medical centers from New Delhi, Mumbai, Ludhiana so far. I'm not sure how and when the other panel hospitals will begin the services, whether they've started or not. So, applicants who are waiting for medicals to be done, please call and check your nearest hospitals (CIC approved) for further updates on available appointments.

Wow, hopefully, normal draws will kick start by end of May.

Are any chances the CRS going down? I am standing at 437 currently, what could be the chances of me getting an ITA?

I'm sorry but very unlikely so... The 440s group is even denser than the 450s. And the last draw's cut-off point only went down from 455 to 452 (3 points) even with CEC-only candidates being invited.

I hope so! It's been a long wait as an FSW candidate since the last draw. Over 2 months now.

Need help....
I am CEC candidate. I got ITA on 1st May 2020. I started working as full time on 21st April 2019 and my job is still continuous. However, I took unpaid vacation of 6 week’s during this period. I also sat down at home for 1 month due to Covid 19. So total time duration of absence at work is 2.5 months.
Now I have following questions?
Should I accept ITA and start the process?
Shoul I wait till 2.5 months to cover up my 1 year full time work experience because IRCC now allows everyone 90 days to submit his application?
Prompt respond will be thankful......

So you want me to say wait till 2.5 months before going for final submission because I have not touched my invitation yet on portal?

Their current trend has been to alternate between 1 week gaps and 2 week gaps between draws (with PNC on the Wednesday and CEC on Thursday). So if we go by current trends then we should expect a PNC round of invitations today. But the reality is that these trends change very often and no one knows for sure (despite what some people on this forum claim) so I wouldn't hold my breath. We can always hope though!

Yes. You have to wait for that time frame before accepting the invitation. While you wait, make necessary arrangements for all your documents because you might not have enough time after the waiting period

It’s okay to receive an ITA before the completion of your work experience as that is updated automatically by the system. However the actual date you accept the invitation is what IRCC take into account so you should be fine. After your waiting period you will have 15 days for submission so that is enough for you to wrap things up. 90 days- 75days = 15
