Ray of Hope - 136th Draw

[zee90999]

I'm at 468. I feel like I should proceed with OINP if there's no B2B draw next time or next B2B draw isn't below 468.
This EE system has become a nonsense.

You must proceed than delaying.

 

[zee90999]

If no B2B. I might have to consider options for Australia.

Suprising to see the tie breaking rule going back to may 19, is it any good sign guys!?

So in the first week of November 2019 people predicted and argued on these ROH threads. Many people said we will have 5 draws in the last 2 months of 2019. The result was we had 4 draws and reduced draw size to 3400 each in December 2019.

Now in 2020 still people are predicting 3 draws in January itself..!!! And hoping for a draw on 29th??

Somehow 86000 or 88000 ITA's will be issued this year. Now it's a mystery how will they do the distribution over the course of 12 months, but as of today it is clear guys below 467 please think of a PLAN B in life. ( Not all NOC's are eligible for PNP, don't keep all hopes on SINP or AINP etc, the quota for SINP and AINP express entry streams are between 5k to 8k respectively per year and the pool size today is 141000, do the probability matrix yourself)

The ex Canadian immigration minister on the radio interview in Surrey BC last year told these words clearly " Express entry is a like a competition, whoever scores more, gets to come to Canada" It's clearly a game of survival of the fittest now.

Be realistic everyone, please don't expect miracles in life, if it happens because of some positive news in USA or something else then take it as a welcome surprise otherwise start working on your respective PLAN B for life.

It’s no good sign

I think it’s because of those who received PNP nominations last year are getting their points awarded and it seems the trend will continue

I'm going to book an ielts for my wife, sitting at 468 won't do us any good

Certainly not. It means those who are already in the pool are updating their profiles and pushing higher scores.

I am wondering What people below 400 are waiting for.

PNP

Waiting at 470, profile created in sept 19 and today’s tie breaking went back to may. Hoping for b2b now

 

[usagi17]

Might be because there will be B2B? Let's hope.

Once she gets there you would be able to get a boost of 15 points on your CRS

what is B2B?

Back to back draws. Occasionally there are draws two weeks in a row

I am at 467, do you think it will float about 470/471 for a while i.e. few months?

Not sure what to do, I am in Ontario and would take PNP if I got it.
