FSW WORLDWIDE

[kaashi14]

Don't listen to wannabe Zack Braffs on this forum.

Your time will come. You have a good score, you'll get there.

Canada is looking to quadruple its immigration targets. Soon you, too, will be able to land here and be racist against your own kind.

Let's hope so. Thank you.

Are u sure? I have seen people getting selected by oinp for second time
Once in 2nd Feb
Another in last week draw

I didn't get picked in both draws even though the NOC code matches and I had the required CRS as well. And I read on this forum that you have to create the profile again to be considered by OINP in the future draws.

Who knows!

The story of declining and winning or losing are plentiful here.

People with 450 CRS in 2018 declining ITAs thought they'd get it in next draw. 2019 was a shock to them.
People with 460-70s in 2020 thought the same. Twitter is full of their "plight" now.

Don't know if you are FSW-O or CEC. Depending upon what you are, C-19's quota reduction from general EE draws could either help or annoy you.

At the end, increasing CRS with French and LMIA job is an option too. As long as you don't give and are working on your application, you won't be doomed. Just keep in mind that there's a unspoken "Law of Competition" in immigration. If anything's too easy and direct (e.g. shit IELTS CLB9 or a student graduate route), it will get competitive and unreliable very fast.

Rely on the hard stuff to safeguard yourself, while covering the direct and easy stuff.

French right now is super low competition. IIRC, there were only a max of 300 people in the entirety of 2022-23 EE draws who got ITAs as FSW-O through French. Many are still trying to take shortcuts while giving TEF/TCF and not taking it seriously enough. But, expect this to be a situation for the next 1-1.5 year max. After that, the "Law of Competition" will kick in and it would no longer be a path.

I'm FSW-O. French is the best option I guess but it will take a year at least. Let's see what happens hopefully the FSW draws resume again.

You definitely have to recreate.

i support them regardless of their nationalities.

I guess you should start French regardless. Hope for the best, but prepare for the worst.

I don't.

Being bilingual opens door for government jobs in Canada, including that of PM of Canada. I so want to see someone from this thread become PM of Canada.

Too bad! @mushymush left! I would have certainly campaigned for @mushymush.

Yes will do that now. Wish I knew this a few days ago. Missed 2 draws already. Hopefully OINP does a draw in April as well in case FSW draws are still paused.

Why is his message count zero and join date in 2023? Is it the date his profile was deleted but username preserved?

no, he deleted his account and someone recreated an account in his name... simple "hijack"?

Congratulations to all who received their ITAs. March AOR and April AOR are going to quite big threads lol.

Pretty decent drop to 490 points. I wonder if they will do another big draw in 2 weeks and then implement changes from April. Kinda similar to those 4 big all-program draws at the end of 2020.
...or they're simply catching up after the last few PNP-only draws.

Maybe catching up. I hope 486-489s get their ITAs in the next one. Those have been teased for quite a long time now.
