Oh man !

should I re-create my profile ??

Thank you for the encouragement. I really don't want to trade my spouse in for a younger model in order to be eligible, lol.

but I feel it'd be easier for her to find a younger (even one already with PR) if you both set out in search....
better not crack this joke at home & let her have the last laugh.....

Maybe it's the same thought that is at the back of your spouse's mind!!!
Just saying. Lol

So u mean to say that everyone eligable with 67 points wil get Ita this year, irrespective of their crs points??? For instance am standing at 355, do u think i also a fair chance of getting Ita this year?

Hi bro, as per the CRS latest distribution statistic announced on IRCIC website, the number of candidates in the pool with CRS range 351-400 is 22,313 candidates and bear in mind that number is distributed for each group in that range. So, if the IRCIC, as I believe, falling short of candidates available with scores over 400 they'd pick those who are between 351-400 given the recent trend of the CRS cut-off decrease from 800 to 413. Having said that, it's preferable that you work on updating your express entry profile if you have got any better score in English Language so that you'll stand at decent CRS range to get you picked sooner.

Keep fingers crossed and the hope alive bro, and the best has yet to come... nothing predictable though, and all our assumptions are based on recent statistics.

I think these changes made on June 6th could have made the score distribution a bit unpredictable. I wouldn't mind them not having a draw this week, but I really want to see what the rankings look like

Why don't you try and improve your IELTS? BTW what's your test score?

I think if you need to be considered for NOI then you should recreate your profile. There isn't any great harm in doing so. Some people are reluctant to do so because of the new tie breaker rule. But if you are not selected ( i.e. receive an ITA)because of the rule then chances are you would be selected in the very next draw.

The only downside is that I will graduate in Oct 2018. For the youngsters here, it's no big deal. But as perhaps the oldest poster on this forum, I worry that Canada will stop accepting older people.

I disagree. They have already given lesser points or no points for age to older guys. I dont think that will affect you. You are not gonna lose any points anyway You will gain atleast 45 Points. 30 for Canadian Masters Studies and 15 for Masters degree in Education So your score will increase to 429. Maybe you ll have to write IELTS again if it expires in the mean time. Im glad you chose queens its the only uni that has a masters program which can be completed in 8 months

I have appointed an agency for PR process and my experience is pathetic till now. Once suddenly my profile turned ineligible and this stupid consultant recreated my profile. He has given me the same credentials and when i log in to the profile there appear 2 profiles. First which is the newly created one and the other which turned ineligible. My question is whether will I face any difficulty due to this or should I tell my consultant to delete this profile altogether and create a new1?

My other question is regarding CA articleship. My stupid consultant has asked me not to count it as work experience and whereas I have received many favourable feedbacks to include the same. Also NOC 1111 specifically mentions that "articling students are included under this unit." Could please any1 give me sure and a honest advice relating the same (possibly with a similar experience) because my CRS without including articleship is 399 and post including it is 411. Whether submitting an explanation letter citing the specific clause under NOC 1111 would be feasible once I get invitation?.

Would appreciate inputs on both my concerns.

I'm in the no point category. As long as they don't change the rules, I'm fine. But if they were to add an upper age limit for eligibility, like many countries have, it would be over for me. Age is the one thing you can't change.

I already have maxed IELTS and have a US master's (as has darling spouse), so 414 is our max unless I can get the 7s in french. Just started learning french this year, so it will take some time.
