CRS 469 - No Canada Experience - need expert advice

[Rohexpentry]

Guys,

I have a CRS 469 and submitted profile on 04 Mar, 2016. Today's draw (09 March) required CRS 473 and obviously I'm not expecting ITA :'( . Should I pursue any PNP or just play waiting game. My CRS is going to decrease by 5 points in March last week as my birthday is coming up. Any expert advice would be appreciated.

i honestly cant understand why you are worried by this. I am almost certain youll get an ITA in the next draw. You heard it here first

Even if your score is 464 you'll 99% get eventually. They just bumped the score and it doesn't mean it will be like this forever

That's what I thought before today's draw ... but I appreciate your encouraging words.

I hope so.... It has happened in 2015 that they bumped the score up a little and it went down again.

That's a decent score. I still think you should wait another 2 draws and then pursue PNP, I'm not sure how long PNP will take but it shld be the last resort ...

Suppose it comes down to PNP, what will be my options. Any idea?

If you do not have a Canadian job offer nor education, PNP in main stream provinces is almost out of question (BC, ON, AB). Quebec has a different immigration process, so not including that here. But in the last year or so NS, PEI and SK have taken batches of 500 PNP applications for qualified people from outside of Canada. You just have to keep your docs ready (POF for 6 months) and qualifications and follow them closely to know when they announce intake.

Generally speaking less crowded and remote provinces open up PNPs from outside of Canada where as major ones don't.

By the way, Ontario has a program that supports PNP if you hold a science or engineering degree (likely Masters or higher only) from a university from there.

Thank you for your inputs. I will wait for a couple of draws and see how it goes.
