next draw is expected to be next week ?

expectation will always be to have a draw today, but ideally as per CIC's characteristics this year it can be guessed as next week if not today............

and this is 2018!

One should not leave in illusion. Based on my best man's and dozens of people' (that he knows) experience this is still true today. Without Canadian education, experience, or at least international certificates for one's field, it is difficult. I assume that for IT profession and some of the engineers, there are better prospects even wihout above mentioned.
Btw, he has lived in Toronto for the past four years. In order to work in his field he completed Master's diploma in Canada, obtained Teacher's college degree and learned French. As I already wrote, I might depend on your profession.

Everyone wants a draw today but its just that with high expectations and draw not happening, we dont want hopes to crushed by the evening. But lets be hopeful and by now most of us are used to this game of ITAs and this crazy wednesday fever...

In my opinion, I think these are the factors:
1. Backlog cleared and feel like they can handle a lot more this year
2. Too much applications refused due to incompleteness, thus more ITAs to cover the lost. Or vice versa.
3. CIC has more human resources and money to handle applications
4. They are desperate to get more ppl to immigrate Canada
5. Employee's vacation is over, get back to work

Thanks but i was actually asking about the increased number of applicants entering the pool.

A good Wednesday morning Mesdames et Messieurs! So we're at 444 and finally IRCC decides to draw 3,500. May such generosity continue!

I'd honestly be extremely surprised if there's a draw today, but if it happens, I'd say they will draw another 3,500 (let's hope this is the trend going forward in 2018), with a CRS cut off at 438. Can foresee happy days ahead should there be a draw today...

Hi everyone. I just wanna know if we can still apply in SINP even though our NOC is not part of the in-demand list? We do have close relatives who are citizens and residing in SK.

Is SINP open for applications?

Read an interesting theory few days ago about the yearly quota implimentation starting from April 2018 which makes ne very hopeful of a draw happening today. So my prediction

CRS 438 for a draw happening today
CRS 440 for a draw happening next week

Yea I was reading the texts of my group members who are already in Canada, they said, its not easy. Having a fluent French will a massive advantage. So guys, bonne chance!

Well I beg to differ here. I know a lot of people who have landed recently and have secured a job. Its a lot about your attitude and personality. Employers look for these traits in the interview. If you have the required skills and the right attitude, you can get a job with a little struggle.

Is SINP open for applications?

Not sure though. My partner and I are considering PNP as our option. Is it possible to apply even if our NOC is not part of the in-demand list?
