I am anxiously waiting at 427 .. and hopeful that this Wednesday or the next the scores will drop and I'll get an invite. However, as a plan B was checking how can I improve my score. Can't do anything about the age or experience .. both are max-ed out. For English Language, I am at CLB 9 - L 8.5, R 7.5, S 7.5, W 7.5

My question is and I guess I know the answer is 'no' .. can I take only the Reading test in IELTS ;D . If I get a 8 in reading, with the above my CLB should be 10 and I get additional points.

Unfortunately its a No... You will have to repeat the IELTS. Be positive, give IELTS a shot in parallel & let's hope the CRS drops..

hi guys!

were from Philippines and currently sitting at CRS 426. waiting anxiously for the draw.

good luck guys.
 
Hello Friends,

So, here is my best guess: In the last draw, there were about 550 points for each point reduced per week (from 441 to 434 in 1 week with 3880 invitations). So, in three weeks, we will have about 1650 points for each point reduced in the cutoff. In the 57th draw, if the number of invitations are about 3500-4000, then there will be a reduction in the cutoff score by 2 points (since 1650 X 2 = 3300) and the new cutoff for the next draw should be at most 432.⁠ Nevertheless, I hope the cutoff is even lower and wish you all good luck with the 57th draw!!

Cheers!! :)

By the way, my CRS is 433.

Nice math.. but it doesn't work out that way..550 per point was accumulated over the past couple of years and we can't extrapolate and derive 1650 from it within 3 weeks. I'm confident that it will drop down to 427-428 range in the next draw. Anyone's guess. let's wait and watch!

When I press "Continue to GC key' the page times out .. so some maintenance is on I guess .. or my internet is playing crazy ..

I had this issue y'day and continue to have the same today as well. All other websites are working, only CIC page is not opening .. so don't think its internet issue. Anyone else facing the same issue ??
