CIC seems to be fairly consistent with a draw happening roughly each 1st and 3rd Friday of each month. I would use that as a rough guide. 1st of May is a public holiday (bank holiday round the world except in canada) so they will push this one to the 8th :)

I am really hoping the next draw to be on May 8th as I am expecting to get my ECA by the first week of May. My score should go to 450+ and hopefully I will finally get an ITA.
Good luck everyone.

I have a question. I know that it is impossible to predict scores with any certainty, but if anyone could share their thoughts on this please. Here's my situation. I've been in Canada for approximately 8 years and my status is set to expire at the end of May. That's only weeks away. My CRS score is 424, and expected to increase to 431 by July. My question is, does anyone think it is even remotely possible that ITA's are issued to candidates with score 424+ by the end of May? Alternatively, in the event that I must return to my homeland, does anyone think that the score will drop to 431 by the end of summer? In the ideal world, a CEC-specific draw would be conducted soon that would include my score. Of course, I cannot hold my breath on this.

Again, I know that no one can share predictions with any conviction, but I'm just wondering if I'm a fool for having false hope. I was confident that my score would have been sufficient to receive an ITA given the downwards trend. However, based on the unexpected climb in CRS at the 7th draw, the recent decline in the number of ITAs, and many fellow posters sentiments that the score will remain relatively stable at the 453 mark, I am wayyy tooo stressed and depressed to think clearly anymore.

FYI, I'm in CEC, and am maxed out in points for IELTS and age.

There is no guarantee of CEC-specific draw. CIC leaves themselves the right to held one.

If your WP expires before you have an actual application, you can change your status to visitor (visitor record). Of course you can't work or study with that visa.

IMO, CIC is artificially holding back the number of ITA, preventing cut off score to drop below a certain point and let less competent people (in their mind) comes to Canada. So whether cutoff will drop to lower 400s is lies on CIC's decision, rather than (as CIC said) supply and demand.
