Ray of Hope - 123rd Draw

[tanveennagi]

You have apply for work permit extension either way ..

But if I don’t get the invite, can I still apply for the work permit extension?

Wow, with CRS 458 I thought I might not get an ITA because of the tie breaker rule (submitted on July 8th), but 458 didn't even get invited. So upset right now.

By this slow speed of falling CRS 8th July 458 candidates will not be picked in next draw
This draw was a less than 1 point decrease , if next draw is 1 point decrease then CRS will be 458 with May 25 tiebreaker
I hope this draw was exceptional and u get ita in next draw, gud luck

My application create a year ago at 459, I didn't get invite...

It's not same as last year! They were issuing 3750 ITAs from June and 3900 from September. Also, CIC didn't manipulate the CRS cutoff with a 28 days gap! This situation has been artificially created.

I'm aware that it's not exactly the same but I think that what's most important at this point is that (1) there are no more delayed draws and (2) the number of ITAs is increased. With respect to the delayed draws, even though the length of the delays is not exactly the same as last year, the delays occurred at similar times. On that basis, we can expect no delays when the next FST draw happens. Regarding (2), CRS has increased the number of ITAs from 3350 to 3600 (albeit not at the same intervals as last year). So again, it would be reasonable to assume that there will be another increase later this year. Even if there is not increase in ITAs, what's critical for me is that the regular draws continue uninterrupted as this will ensure that the CRS cutoff continues to fall (even if it it one agonising point at a time).

Guys your predictions for the next draw please? also pls mention the tie breaker date

 

[tanveennagi]

At 459, expected today that I will definitely get ITA. But missed by slight delay as my profile was created on 29th may. It's becoming so close and the way cutoff is decreasing, it is scary.

Just the thought that In case there is a gap for any one week extra in between, don't know how much the cutoff will increase and how much time will it take to come back. Was really hopeful to get cleared today.

Stuck in the same situation as you

Looks very far
And if the luck is bad, I am afraid that it may never reach
Brother , please try to improve ur score, don’t get carried away by sweet posts/hopes

Congrats bro as u recieved your ITA today...Best wishes!

I empathize with u as I'm living through the same pain. I had fill preparation to apply in April itself only to witness resistance in CRS drop and further deterioration by a 28 days gap. The perceived wind became a hurricane that's difficult to withstand. Everything that we imagine to be helpful in this situation is turning against us. This is a real test of one's patience and grit. At 448, I had not imagined that I'll have to wait for months. Wonder what's next!

Same here @armaanwadhwa & @EnthuChap. When I was working on my ECA and IELTS in Jan, and my expected score was 448, I thought it would be a breeze! I didn't create an EE profile even when I had the required documents by the end of March as I wanted to buy more time before entering the pool as had certain pressing engagements. Finally created my profile in May.... And look at it now!!!! There's no way I can do anything to increase my score, except of course start taking French classes, which again require minimum one year :-( I've been following ROH threads since Jan, and the hopping over from one ROH to the next seems to be a ritual now. Just hoping things take a turn for the better before I lose my 5 points in early December. Fingers crossed!

Waiting for that ITA email...

Whoever gets the ITA, please let us know so we can have some sort of timeline.

Hi, does it take a long time to get the ITA after the draw happens?
Because I have 494 CRS score and I still haven't received any message in my inbox.

You'll get it within 24 hours. Stay calm!

Ya Quite surprising.
Last draw was a 2.44 point decrease
This time it was expected to be a 1.xx decrease
But in fact this is a 0.xx decrease in CRS
May be loads of pnp issued after 19th July

Yeah! Its specifically because of the density of 450+ applicants which have accumulated a huge backlog. Interestingly, Yesterday and today nominations were given, I guess it would have only a slight impact on the cut-off, otherwise we would have witnessed an increase rather the descrease in the cut-off.

Well, More number of people are entering into the pool, plenty of the 440s-450s are trying their best for improving their individual scores. All of these factors have resulted in only 1 point drop. Taking this into consideration, I guess this trend is likely to be continued for few more draws untill there is an increase in the ITAs.

Thanks! That's what I'm thinking too. My work permit expires mid August so I am really hoping for a b2b draw.

Hi Guys,
I am currently @ 459. Profile created on June 17th, 2019. Any chances of getting picked before/ On September 4th draw? I will be losing 5 points on October 7th.

Hi Everyone,

I'm so delighted to tell you, after being a part of great struggle from the last 6 months, I got my ITA today.

I want to thank each and everyone of you for being a part of this great CRS draw journey so far. Undoubtedly, everyone has unique story in their lives and when they fall down, they come up more stronger next time.

I've seen so many applicants so far who made themselves motivated through out till the time they didn't get the golden ITA ticket. Because they deserved the BEST!

Big salute to those, who're still waiting for their turns and didn't give up. You guys are the best examples for everyone who're striving for the best to happen still. Keep pushing yourself, don't stop, try hard to enhance your scores and don't give a single damn to negative folks. No matter what, never ever give up!

ALWAYS REMEMBER IT'S NOT OVER UNTIL YOU WIN!!

Congratulations mate! Still waiting for mine
