    Ray of Hope - 85th Draw

    Hi all, I have noticed that there is general preference on ITA compared to OINP program. People are holding on to the last possible day hoping an ITA compared to accepting OINP. Apart from investing in CAD 1,500, what are the other considerations for reluctance in accepting OINP. With someone...

    Ray of Hope - 85th Draw

    Next draw is likely to be on 14th March and if that happens as hoped with 3000ish invitations, you should have good chance with 447.

    I have not yet reached that stage but I believe you have to go to Police station and request the same. Also take your Emirates ID and passport.

    good night folks. Good luck again to all those who are expecting invite today. Hope they end up inviting 5000 before EOD and bring down cutoff to 435.

    But in that case, wouldn't they go for 2750 applicants (say!), Calling off the draw does not seem logical. (At least to me :))

    Assuming the plan is to invite 78,000 more ITA this year (90K target-12K already invited) and about 20 draws remaining (assuming 2 per month), lets hope that on an average 3900 invites have to be there in every draw. I guess there are reasons to be hopeful.

    Ray of Hope - 85th Draw

    Hi, Is there a time span for this. I have lived in US, Switzerland and UK each for more than 6 months but that was all before 2008. (More than 10 years ago). You think, will I still require Police certificate?

    Same here, I am at 423. Based on what I have noticed in the forum, OINP invited people with CRS 433 and above who are in the pool from 1st Jan 2018. Assuming the trend remains same, (Invitation continues going to people around 10 CRS points below the ITA cutoff) we need to hope the ITA cutoff...

    Well, I received W6.5 scores twice as well before finally getting a good score. If money is not an issue, I suggest you apply for re-evaluation and also register for next IELTS exam (or may be 2!). use your best score as and when you get the results.

    That's certainly good news if true. Lets hope that back to back draws and only 1 IELTS result in March will clear some backlog in next few weeks. Fingers crossed!

    Hi all, Just wanted to know about your views on ONIP. I got a sense here that many people are not keen to go for that. What are the pros and cons for ONIP. My CRS is 423, and while I am in no particular hurry, want to get some views on ONIP or other provincial supports Thanks in advance...

    Ray of Hope - 84th Draw

    Hi Friends, Newbie here. My IELTS score (Attempted on Feb1st is L8,R8.5,W7.5,S7.5) and CRS is 423. Based on the comments on this thread, it is unlikely that 423 CRS will be sufficient for at least next several draws. Question: While no one can predict future, Do you guys gut-feel that I have...
