Ray of Hope - 117th Draw

[armaanwadhwa]

Nobody can predict province draws here. For this, you've to regularly check province websites to get updates on current and previous draws. As you're interested in OINP, so you should check this link for program updates: https://www.ontario.ca/page/2019-ontario-immigrant-nominee-program-updates

The annual admissions quota of Ontario is to nominate 6,900 immigration candidates for Canadian permanent residence through its immigrant nominee program in 2019.

Thanks. During the last two years i.e. May 2017 and May 2018, we saw a PNP Draw in May. Maybe we see a same trend?

Also, do you know that the earlier draw in January for PNP which was a general draw, was that for the Human Capital stream as I can't tind a breakdown. Just wanted to have a feel as 2,190 were issued last year under OINP Human Capital Stream.

Why I'm getting this feeling that I'm gonna get ITA tomorrow with CIC surprising us with 7 day draw?

0.1% chance only. CIC releases maintenance notice one day prior to draw every time. Since I cant see any maintenance scheduled for today, so there is no chance of draw happening tommorow.

Btw, I wish your words come true!

Have you maxed out in ielts?

I have a scope of increasing my CRS by 6 points through an increment of 0.5 in reading and writing modules. I have 8.5 in listening and speaking in my second attempt and missed 8 in reading (7.5) by 1 answer.

I don't wanna go through the hassles of preparing and retaking the IELTS test. I genuinely believe that, although late, I will get the ITA at 448.

Its slightly frustrating seating at 450 and still no ITA. I was on 395 for more than a year. Finally gathered my courage and gave ielts. Although crs score is satisfactory, not getting ITA is very annoying. And to know that score hardly crossed 450 in entire 2018......

Don't worry, you will get through in the next round or the one after. Wait is almost over

Patience is the key.

Guys, am I being paranoid or will the election impact the immigration a lot? I've heard that the process might change 360 or skilled worker process will become tedious.

A 360 change would mean no change at all.

Because of your reputation here, I'm going to laugh this one off. You know that I actually meant 180 degrees

I read somewhere, cic has a target of issuing at the least 90000 ITA’s every year up till 2021. Correct me if I am wrong

I have also read that, however, if conservatives take the throne; things could change fast. Who knows?

For the current company, you only submit reference letter. Experience letter is only applicable if you’re claiming points for previous employers (the letter which get when you leave the organisation). Hope this clarify your doubt.

Thank you so much buddy!

Is there a way to get instant alert/notification of express entry rounds of invitations instead of having to check this forum or the canada.ca EE page?

 

[winterisnotcoming]

A 360 change would mean no change at all.

In fact, that's the change I am expecting. A 360.

Jokes aside, I don't think it's going to change. It's conservatives who brought up the EE system in place. They know it's very important for their economy.

Don't pay attention that much, do your best to increase your crs.
Regarding Conservatives' policy, first they must win to alter immigration system. So, in political game we never know what's going to happen.

Even I am a bit dicy whether to retake ielts or wait..could have been at 451 if had scored 8 in reading(now 7.5)..i have chance of further increasing the score by 9 points with CLB 10 which is bit difficult but not impossible.In the interim gathering courage to retake ielts while waiting for ITA to turn up miraculously out of nowhere..

I'm averse to the idea of CBT, and paper based test would mean waiting for 15 days min for test date, then further 13 days for result and 5 days for delivery of TRF.... boom ,atleasto month gone! So I would just wait out that period, which will witness 4-5 draws anyways. Hoping for the best. Good luck to u mate.
