Two scenario:
1- They have not conducted a new draw
2- they conducted and the crs is a typo

I see the second option more probable
Cuz the draw number has changed (#238 )
And the tie breaking time has changed as well

Hmmm, could be. I won't put anything past IRCC.

Anyone gets ITA please update here

My score is 499

They have even updated the crs distribution tables
There are only 2600 candidates over 500
How come the score is 507!
unless 3000 new profiles were added to the pool in just two days before the draw lol

Even then, all 3,000 would have to be above 500!

CRS distribution table is dated 18th Jan i.e. today itself

So the theory that 3000 profiles may be added in past two days is cancelled

Even not sure if that table is prior to OR after draw numbers. Earlier the table was published with figures 2 days before draw.

From new draws in 2023 they have changed their previous pattern

Yes , you are right
However the figures suggest that they are prior to the draw

Thanks. It's just, I can't lose Canadian PR, but I'd prefer US PR. Everyone I talk to tells me to get a citizenship first and go through TN route.

I have a Master's degree from the US. I just don't know anyone who got a green card though NIW. I will do some research on this.

For me just go with Citizenship first, it creates a safety net. I had done some thinking on this, the reason why I want a residency status in either US or Canada is because I don't want to be in a scenario wherein I have to involuntarily return to the country where I'm originally from.

The only thing that you are truly missing out is the 3-4 years wait, and salary difference.

Once you become a Canadian citizen, you can go to the US under TN1, or H1 and it no longer feels a race to get GC; you can take it slowly now.

I would probably try my luck in the US eventually, but for now Citizenship first.
