Haha yes I did ask them when's the next 'batch' and whether I'll be selected sooner? lolGood for you for calling OINP to clarify these issues.
I am otherwise humbled for being corrected.
For this year however, it seems like they have a pattern for sending NOIs at the start of the year and in the middle of the year (Of course, the dates are yet to be constant.) That's what I meant by saying that they seem to have a pattern.
I hope you asked them when they are going to send out the next batch of NOIs though?
He said he can't confirm.
Anyways, if you look at their published Invitation summary, they do seem to calculate the NOI at the end of each period.
I think this is mainly because they have very extensive paper work after with each NOI applicant.
Notice this NOI batch pattern - For example:
FSSW: 31 May, 2018
Number of NOIs issued: 45
Date Express Entry profile submitted:
January 1, 2018 to May 31, 2018
FSSW 24 May, 2018
Number of NOIs issued: 34
Date Express Entry profile submitted:
January 1, 2018 to May 24, 2018
Notice how they've only issued 11 additional NOIs - within 7 days difference? They're pretty slow I guess!
Also notice those lucky people who submitted their profile just between 24th May & 30th May !!! They're super lucky, they got a NOI within less than a week of EE profile creation!
