Hey I have a query I know it could be petty for many but I gotta ask. Say for example my CRS score is 473 fsw and the next fsw draw comes out 472, do I get an ITA if i have entered the pool just a day before the draw?

Short answer, Yes. Long answer: As long as you are in the pool before the draw time (time mentioned in IRCC's website) and your score is higher than the cut-off, you will get an ITA.

I am seriously surprised to see no FSW draws for straight 3 months and also with no announcements from IRCC. They are still trying to meet their immigration targets by just inviting their inland applicants but not external immigrants. Wondering how low will they go score wise for the CEC class? Below into 420s? Possible! It's kind of funny they think a candidate with CEC 420 would add more value to the economy than a FSW candidate with 470+ score.

Seriously disappointed. But guess we can do nothing but to wait. I am ok if they no longer wanted to take external candidates for rest of the year, but a clear communication is helpful so that we don't waste our valuable time and resources for the express entry. Canada has handled this poorly & my respect for this agency went down for sure.

Waiting in the pool since december with a score of 467 and now on June 5th am gonna lose 6 points due to age putting me back at 461. I can max my IELTS score bringing back to 470 (max) but is it worth the effort & money spent? I don't know!! Having spent $1600 USD so far, everything is down the hole. Really sad & I can't be more disappointed in current challenging times.
Hey man I can totally understand and relate to your situation. But all we can do is pray and hope a little longer. This is certainly not the end of the road. My thought is that the next draw will be an FSW which will benefit most of us waiting here since a long time. And just to quote your score decrease, you'll lose 5 points and not 6 points come June.

Anyone did medical, Indian PCC and USA FBI in recent days while in INDIA? I think none of these offices are open now, Is it OK to submit the application without these? Family is in India currently and I'm primary applicant and staying in Canada, and I completed all those but not for family. Please suggest. Thanks!

Canadians know that most of the study visas are used as a step to immigration.

They want to force people to apply for study visa as much as they can to suck up their money first before granting them PR.

Hey Bud, Dont worry my AOR was 18th March 2020 and i received my Biometricsrequest on 07th May 2020. Delays were already expected due to Covid19.
Hey, same dates here, do you think it is good idea to contact them through web form and ask to proceed with biometrics I gave for work permit? (I know I have to give new one for PR, but due to covid 19 might be ?). I don't see any feasible ETA when Services Canada could open. Thanks
