Hey guys. Mine is still in DIP. But once it approves, I have two questions. What is time taken if we apply for PR online rather than paper based? Also is it necessary to givE IELTS? Asking because two of my friends applied paper based 4 months back without IELTS.

If u have applied under international student stream... no u don’t need ielts... online portal is just launched few days ago so waiting time is not clear as now but paper files are taking 21 to 24 months after submission due to very heavy backlog

Thanks Guys. As I am still in DIP, Should i apply for new public policy or not? For that I will have to give ielts which is not easily available. Should I try for public policy or just stick to this oinp and then federal thing

So there is no hope for that

Not sure about how to apply for public policy. In my opinion, get a date for IELTS just for the safe side. I mean to say, if you are interested to apply for express entry alongside your OINP then you need it. In order to make a profile for express entry, IELTS is required so, just do it. I am hoping, the points will be coming down with each draw.
BUT DO NOT RUSH to get the IELTS date, don't pay more than the actual IELTS fee. I heard many people are giving IELTS dates for $1500 and $200. You don't need to go that way.

Thanks guys! Just received my nomination.
My timeline is as follows :
Submission date - dec 24,2020
Assessment- 24 feb
Dip - 24 march
Nomination - april 21.

and yes I will need IELTS for express entry.
Otherwise, if I go with paper based/online application for PR, its gonna take more time.

will try my luck with EE as well.
Thanks guys for the support!!
