I think b2b draw is certainly going to happen this year and it's effect will be much more pronounced for 464+ candidates as they haven't accumulated that much compared to lower scores. Thus, in case of a b2b draw ,we can expect a sharp decline probably 5-6 points in cutoff until 464 but below that it will hardly make a 2-3 points dip.CRS coutoff could reach 462 by year end in the best case and in the worst case 464.
So, expect something around 462-464 in the last draw of 2019 if CIC conducts 3 draws this year.
But, scenario of 4 draws could result in CRS touching 460 mark.
I too feel there gonna be b2b. They are 14500 invites short in the 6 weeks to meet the last year's target(assuming they would atleast hit the last year's mark). so if they have 4 draws with ~3600 invites this could be achieved. And since the last draw was also of 3600 invite, It seems to me that this year could end in this way.
However, CIC has been very unpredictable this year, and nothing is certain. I seriously hope that this year atleast end with a positive sign.
Though I am very far from the cut-off points but !!Fingers crossed!! :)

First of all, congratulations to everyone who got their ITA. Can anyone (from India) please share the checklist of the documents that IRCC has sent ? I am hoping to get my ITA in next draw (my CRS being 472). So was thinking, if there are any documents that might take some time, I can prepare beforehand.

My current score is 457 and I can try to increase it max. to 463 by re-taking IELTS and to 465 if my wife also re-takes the IELTS. However, looking at the current CRS draw trends do you think it is worth the effort?

I know it is difficult to predict the CRS scores, but it would be useful to know some of your perspectives. Thanks.

so will ITAs will not be reduced to 3300 from Jan !!!
Nope i think for 2020 there will a total of 25 FSW draws. 15 draws with 3500 and 10 draws with 3900 , total of 91500 ITA's.

Even if these 25 draws happen on time, scores coming down is not possible, as Pnp's will be active throughout the year and of course the influx of highly qualified high scoring candidates will only increase everyday !!

Of course you should try to increase your scores asap.

Guys I have a question. My score is 468 and my work Visa expires in may 2020. I have worked as restaurant supervisor for 1 year. Once I got 1 year experience I quit that job and now am searching for a better job so at the moment am not working. So is it gonna be a problem if I get ITA coz am not working at the moment. Also how to extend my work permit( work Visa expires on may 2020)when file is under processing for PR without job. I mean can I apply for bridging work permit without any job?

1st thing you know that if you are not working than you have to show them Proof of Funds. 2nd if your score is 468 than you will get ITA in Jan (Or in December) and than if your file is not approved till May than you can wait for 90 days before you apply for Bridging WP. And I belive if you get ITA in January and if you are inland average processing time for Inland applicants is 3 months so you will be good.

Just remember you need Proof of find or a job .
