Will 479 be enough after 3 months? Or, will the score go past that?
The way the system is structured, it’s very difficult for an FSW candidate to score more than 481/482. So it’s highly unlikely the cutoff will ever be beyond the mid 470s when there’s a series of regular draws.

do you think a 474 stands a chance?

Hi guys..need a suggestion...my oinp application is in decision stage in less than 15 days of submission and I'm pretty sure before 22nd il get the PNP nomination. My CRS is currently 474..should I wait for accepting the nomination and see if I get through normal FSW mode in the next draw? (As I'm not sure of living 2-3 years in a particular place) is waiting a good option?

Need suggestions:

Thinking of booking an IELTS exam for Sept 17th now.
IELTS allows cancellation before 5 weeks with a 75% refund.
I will cancel or write the test after seeing what happens on the 22nd of July and the 5th of August.
-> If there is a draw on 5th August or before and its >474 I will cancel the test.
-> If there is no draw even after August 5th, I will write it and increase my score

This seems to be a good idea. What do you guys think?
(Current score: 475 and if I just get 0.5 more on Writing and 1.0 more in Reading my score will be 481)

475 is safe for next round buddy, trust Canada, trust IRCC.

Am in the same boat... current score 475, extra 0.5 in writing and 0.5 in listening would have fetched me 481... but you see... am not thinking of writing another ielts yet... I want to believe I can make the draws with my current score.. if not the next then may after.

Similar boat. On 478, got 3 CLB 10s, and got CLB 9 on reading, was 0.5 points from CLB 10. It was my first time doing IELTS, so had 0 experience on it.
I am hoping for an ITA for the next round hopefully in the next few days!

@BlindGoku @Uncle Yayo I wish you guys good Luck in the upcoming draw. You will make it this time. :)

Just hope these draws continue and cutoff plummets. Because I am finding it difficult to think of ways to improve CRS any further.
