It is as reliable as IRCC conducting an all program draw tomorrow.

That FSW regular draws is even up for discussion this early is good omen, whatever happens tomorrow. Was thinking no chance till next year, or no chance for regular fsw draws forever.
So my application is currently with OINP. Yesterday morning eastern time, I got a mail from them saying my application is incomplete. The reason given was that my express entry profile isn't valid anymore. I immediately checked the profile, and it was all there and well. The letter went on to say that this could happen when an ITA has been issued to the profile.
This glitchy FSW draw might be a potential reason. Maybe they pressed the wrong button and everyone who would've got an ITA yesterday with 4,200 invites had their profiles removed from the system momentarily?

Wow.... So the chance of an all-program draw tomorrow is really high. They'd better do that, otherwise, they might have accidentally messed up a lot of PNP applications.
I replied to OINP with a screenshot of my profile confirming I haven't got an ITA. I hope they consider it. If not, it'll be some extreme dark humour in my life if there's no all programs' draw tomorrow.
When did you submit your OINP application? Maybe they will nominate you this week or they could have just randomly checked your EE profile validity.
Submitted it on September 5th, not in assessment yet. Yeah, it could be a number of reasons. My express entry profile is valid till October 7th, so if this error turned up, there has to be some weird glitch somewhere.

Well, But I still wish you to receive your ITA tomorrow, and get your PNP application cancelled for good.
I remember, applications of PNP applicants usually take longer time to process. It's still better to apply as a pure FSW.
I do have a theory. Last year, around September/October we saw the huge spike on the CRS score, when the score jumped from 450 to 470 in a matter of 5-6 weeks.If this is true, although I would be elated, what's more surprising is the addition of candidates (nearly 3k) to the pool in less than 2 weeks. The other ranges (450 to 460 or the 460 to 470) has not seen much spike.
Not sure from where only these dudes enter the pool in large numbers when people everywhere have difficulties in writing IELTS, Getting their ECAs done.
In two weeks, amid this pandemic, also when most IELTS centers in US are still closed, who only are those dudes getting into the pool with such high scores
I believe this is due to the fact that college programs usually start in September. That means many students, 2 years later, also get their certificates/diplomas around that time, and consequently, increase their scores. So, the increase is not related to people being added to the pool, but actually jumping from 440-450 to 470-480 due to Canadian credentials.
About IELTS/WES, I definitely don't think people are facing problems to get access to these services. On contrary, on Brazilian forums people are claiming that their WES were ready in less than 2 weeks after submitting the documentation (mine took almost 3 months between November/2019 and January/2020!!!). Also, even though I live on the third most COVID-19 affected country on the planet, I can write IELTS/TCF anytime I want. In fact, I passed the TCF about 4 weeks ago, zero effort to get a test date here.
WES certainly seems to be much faster now than it was pre pandemic. So many are completing it in less than a month, probably because a lot of checks are happening online.
Last year for me it had taken 4-5 months. I hope they stick to this new style of working, it was bizarre waiting so long to essentially get a few documents verified.

Your thwrotries are good. You seem experienced in this journey. Anyways, do you think regular fsw draws are here to stay?
Hello guys,
i have a question.
My wife is the primary applicant and we intend to use gift deed as POF. the gift deed would be paid into her account.
i am thinking of opening a mutual fund account that we would transfer the POF into. So i would like to know if that is advisable?

I would like to. But the majority of VACs remain closed, so I'm not sure. Trying to predict IRCC nowadays is a waste of time. It's impossible to really know what they're planning.
