Any advice you can give for preparing an application that processes so quickly? I have my ITA and preparing the application now, hoping for a similar timeline, though I will be through PNP stream ;)
if you are doing via PNP and already nominated, then you will have most of the docs sorted already except for PCC and Medicals by the time you get an ITA so dont worry much.

You are correct, and actually I already have PCC ;-) Just waiting to get one of them translated and affidavit notarised. Medical booked for next week! I noticed Madeline's processing by IRCC was very fast. Maybe there is a way to organise documents, supplements, or personal history to speed things up!

I feel NOI are being issued to people with lower CRS but those could be the ones who have French language skills. Not sure if it is a promising sign..
They had to dig as deep as 351 CRS to find French speaking candidates. Those with job offer will be much lower. This draw has been targeted at French speaking people mostly.

OINP playing preferential game too.... So we wait and watch ; P

I understand requirement of French candidates, but ppl with job offer would anyways get 600points and ITA. Why would they go for PNP?
There is no 600 points anymore for job offer. They changed it since Nov 2016.
It is only 50 for NOC A B occupation and 200 points for NOC 0.

Are people with older profile creation date with same CRS score as a NOI nominee with recent profile creation date any different? Y is FIFO practiced instead of LIFO ? Anybody with any insights pls share your thoughts... Feel distraught not receiving NOI coz I created profile earlier last year

Yes and this sucks! Like there should be more points for working in Canada as a skilled worker already. Yeez this makes people prisoners when you have to wait at least 2+ years to change your job.
