Guys, did anyone's application move to the "Assessment" status yet? My timeline as follows:
NOI received: 29th July 2020
Application Submitted: 31st July 2020
Current status as on 15 August 2020: Submitted

Mine is the same, submitted on 8th Aug. What's your CRS?

I am in same boat. Submitted in 6th August and status is still the same. Please share once your file status moves to Assessment.

When will the HCP draw take place in August 2020. I am at 468 eagerly waiting for the draw
Noc 1111
Anyone else in the same boat ?

Yup same boat. Getting negative vibes already. I don't know why. Let's hope we get NOI for OINP. FSW is crazy and OINP is a hope now.

They recently had Employer Job Offer: Foreign Worker stream with 1300 registrations followed by 1288 NOI's issued with the latest tech draw. Now that we know 4,814 nominations have been issued and about 2500 remaining which can accommodate Employer Job Offer stream and the recent tech draw. I think they will increase their allocation if required like last year but I don't think any express entry related draw will happen this year.

Does not make rational sense. It means you are saying under HCP, OINP is only inviting tech guys. Either there is gonna be "General draw" or "Priority Occupations" draw otherwise OINP will be restricted only to tech guys which is very limited population.

Please understand that nominations is different from NOIs.

In 2019, For HCP -
1. There were 6958 NOIs sent to EE candidates.
2. Out of 6958, 2710 nominations (which adds 600 points) were issued. (That’s roughly 40% conversion)

Going by trends - In 2020, there has been a Tech/Priority draw each quarter this year.

In all certainty, to match last year NOIs, there would be 2 priority draw and 1 tech draw in-line still in store.

Wow, this is shocking. Is it because people who received NOI did not apply or the approval rate is just very low? Looking at this stat makes me nervous

If you see the trend last year, the federal CRS cutoff consistently fell within the OINP draws range because of which most of the NOI's were wasted but that is not the case this year. Early 2020 saw very high CRS cutoff and most people who received NOI in the 460's and low 470's applied and got nominated.

This year only the May 13th Tech draw and June 3rd priority occupations draw saw this happen as the CEC only cutoff fell to 431 and the all program draw cutoff is at 476 now.

OINP issued most of their NOI's by this time last year but this year they issued much less NOI's. Unless all program draws continue and people with NOI's receive ITA's, chances of another EE draw are very low IMO. Let's see what happens.

- In that sense, 2019 was a good year for OINP. Don't think there were as many dead NOIs as there are in 2020. Case in point: OINP HCP Tech Draw, 2019 - 2 draws, 3366 NOIs (in a span of 20 days). Score range 435-459 as on Aug 1st. EE CRS was always above 460 after Aug 1st.

- 2019 was the first year they launched targeted draws and OINP did b2b draws to meet the annual allocation. I mean, 4400 NOI in 30 days (July 12- Aug 15, 2019) - didn't see anything like that till now in 2020.

- In early 2019 there was also a General Draw (part of HCP) which issued nearly 1500 NOIs. Don't see that happening in 2020 so you can allocate those numbers in 60:40 % basis to Tech and Priority respectively.

- 2020 has been more or less once every quarter. That's where I believe 1 Priority Draw Before September 2020 and 1 Tech + 1 Priority in Last Quarter (Oct-Dec 2020) is still in store.

- Going by numbers - Even after the tech draw on July 29th, there are close to 2500 NOIs which still remain to be allocated to above 3 draws just to match 2019 NOIs. Any additional allocation is a bonus.

2020 hasn't been a good year for many. Hope these last few months bring some cheer.

Good analysis and insight. Let's hope that OINP conducts big draws for Non tech as well to clear low scoring people and that it does not have any unpleasant surprises in the bag.

As per past trends, OINP do not conduct any big draws in last quarter meaning thereby Aug and Sep 20 might be the months when they clear everything out for the year. Fingers crossed

Hello There,

i have been nominated by Ontario in April 2020 and i am still in the process of gathering my documents (pcc delayed) to submit the express entry application by end of August 2020.

I read somewhere that pnp nominated application will take more time than normal Express Entry application. Is it true?

Thanks!
