[ngarrepa]

Any idea when is next FSW draw? And my profile submitted in May 2020, I am constantly updating it. But, it still shows as May 2020. Do I need to recreate profile again?

No one knows.

I would not recreate since then you may be penalized by the tie breaker rule.

What you mean by penalized by tie breaker rule?

Just to give more clarity. I created in May 2020, but my crs score was too low to get fsw. But now I have enough score with latest ielts numbers. But, it still showing as submitted in May 2020. I remember someone mentioned lottory will not pick profile expiring soon. So, do I need to create one more or just wait ?

I think they are going to continue PNP/CEC draws until the government has an idea of how and when they are going to reopen the borders. That's the bad news.

The good news is that I am basically 100% sure that borders will start to reopen at some point this year. And its fairly likely that will happen starting sometime in the summer.

The most likely timing is they restart FSW draws around the same time they did this year - June/July. This is a complete guess btw!

Since then have you received an email saying there's been changes in your status? Cause I submitted my profile, recuced an email saying there's been changes in my status but when I log into GCkey my profile is the same

What happens if there is no fsw draw until my profile expire in May 2021? Should I create new one again?

Yes - you would recreate your profile.

yesterday I saw on news that they are going to end up lock down in Toronto and they are gonna open some jobs... any chance to have all-program draw in February?

I think low likelihood for the next few months until there is a plan to open borders.

Edit: there are two problems for FSW draws right now.
1) There is a big backlog of FSW applications as IRCC is processing slowly due to COVID and they have responded by prioritizing CEC applications
2) They cannot issue COPR to FSW-Outland due to travel restrictions, which will almost certainly continue to be in place through the end of the summer

There are FSW (both Outland and Inland) applicants from August 2019 who have still not received COPR... and probably will not until this fall. Two full years for processing time. That is unfair to those applicants and I think IRCC wants to prevent that from being the "new normal" which is why they have stopped doing FSW draws for the moment.

it seems that the next FSW is gonna be on April

has it happened before to have pnp draw without CEC?
