You still have 1 more chance, depend on how fast you can redo your TEF and get the needed CBL. Then you could use that NOI for the French stream and even for HCP once reopened.

Because CBL 7 from French can add you 15 points (30 is the max boost for French) and that can push you over CRS 400. It might be worth a try.
 
Because for HCP you are only required to have 400 points from the moment of application until ITA and AOR. But not for the moment of NOI itself.

Oui, c'est ça que je vais faire. Je vais oublier ce NOI et me préparer pour repasser le tef. J'en ai assez de me brûler la tête en pensant à cette NOI
 
The beauty of that NOI is that you can use it for HCP stream, so now you have like 3 - 4 months to improve your language (English on CBL 9 or French on CBL 7). Good luck.
 
Dear friends of this post, I wanted to thank you all for the past months of exchanges and discussions, and many many of your posts read attentively every day ! We have now officially received our PPR yesterday (details in my signature and on myimmitracker)

Now the real dream will kick off.
All the best to all of you, and may the CIC Gods send you great news as well ! Signing off :-)

Hi, everyone!
Does anyone have a clue on how long it´s taking OINP (French-speaking stream) to send the AOR after submission of application nowadays? Do you think the Christmas period (holidays) can increase considerably this lag time?

Sauriez-vous dire combien de temps le "Programme Ontarien EE volet travailleurs francophones" est en train de prendre actuellement pour nous envoyer le récépissé de nos documents après leur soumission? Croyez-vous que dans la période de Noel y-a-t-il des retards importants dans ces délais pour cause des vacances?

Merci, les amis! Thank you, my friends!

Dear gents,

I received today two letter from CIC.

In the 1st one they asked me to pay for Right of Permanent Residence Fee. Done.

In the 2nd letter they have sent medical request for my son who is not accompanying me to Canada, because he stays with my ex-wife. All my attempts to convince his mother to conduct his medical exam were unsuccessful. Instead I included:

1. Notarized Statutory Declaration, in which I stated my understanding that without medical exam my son would be excluded forever from family class sponsorship and I would never be able to sponsor him.
2. Notarized translation of the court decision stating that our son stays under his mother custody, while I am in obligation to pay monthly alimony to her.

As usually I need your advice, what would you recommend me to do?
 
Guys - first of all ,i'm impressed by the breadth and depth of the information available here so a big thank you to all the contributors... Second, i ve just created an EE profile with 431 crs and as such, interested by oinp fssw nomination. I maxed out (CLB 10+) on 3/4 on tef tests (with the worst one at CLB 7)...Do you think i stand a good chance for a loi and when do u think i can expect to get it out of experience??
 
I advice you to wait for a direct extraction... cause the fswd people are treated faster ! Just hold on a bit and see if your score gives direct ita next draws.. you wont loose anything ..

Do you guys know what is the average processing time of fssw procedure starting from receprion of documents?
 
Ok,
1. TEF uses the A1 to C2 scale. But CBL scores are more refined, so first check the exact points range and also check if you did not make a typo in your profile leading to calculate higher CBL.
2. NOI can also be given for Human priorities. Unfortunately that one is closed at the moment. Many other people with NOI are waiting for them to reopen that stream. For HCP you need either to have 400+ points or you need to be close to it and have one of the IT NOC they might be seeking for.

Good luck
TEF CBL 7:

Reading - 207 +
Writing - 310 +
Listening - 217+
Speaking - 310+

Having French as a first language was their hidden condition (but maybe by now, they are able to corss search the database).



I didn't find any thing in OINP French Speaking requirements tells that it's mandatory for the applicant to choose French in the Express Entry profile as the first language. So, Please could you tell me what do you mean with "hidden condition" concerning French as a first Language?

Besides, I have a question about the possibility to open Express Entry profile with English as first language (IELTS CLB9) to gain more points of the 67 points required, then register in OINP French Speaking stream (TEF CLB 7):
Is is possible or not?
