Ray of Hope - 92nd Draw

[Reddiered07]

If IRCC doesn't want to go below 440, there would not be any draw today because as per IRCC website there were only 228 applicants with score more than 440 on 24 May before 30 May draw.

228 is for only 1 day dude..there are 13 days to follow till today!!

In that case, cut off would be around CRS 450. Too early to give up today though!

Again 450 is scary.

Let's not forget that 7 Feb draw was only done at 16:55:01 UTC and 15 Nov 2017 draw at 17:54:19 UTC. (People must have gone nuts on those days)

There is still time left for draw to happen. 7 Fe draw was very late. Also a draw may have happened already and they are delaying the publish time. Be positive.

I'm technically a 0213 too right now, but based on the last 5 years at my company, I've rather selected 2174. These codes are fascinating, as in South Africa, we can end up doing so many diverse things in one 'job', you end up having to pick one.

In theory, you should be offered an OINP HCP if they offered me one, but I know they're only looking at profiles that were submitted in 2018 (I had to resubmit mine in order for them to find me, and it took a month before I was offered). Otherwise, it's anyone's guess

Thx for your response. I have the same situation and can easily choose 2147 not 2174. What do u recommend? 0213 or 2147? Did you get regular HCP or the one with the French or job offer stream?

Hello to all,

For work experience, is it necessary to submit letter which is dated in last six months or older will do?

Here I am talking about older job.

I don't know which one to recommend I assume they'd be looking at both categories, but I originally used 2174 at the time and have just stuck with it. I'm in the regular HCP stream - if you can get into the French it goes much faster apparently. Note that it's pay-for-play - as in, its a CAD$1500 fee to process a OINP which why I'm totally loving this situation where I'm possibly 2 points from getting an ITA, but I've blown the money because I can't wait forever. OINP takes a lot longer than 60-90 days - it took 60 days from submission to move me to 'assessment', and based on MyImmiTracker, I've seen another 60 days to get nominated as well.

So how exactly does one come to know the news first of a draw... they publish it on cic website?

I have been following these threads for a while ...honestly, I don't want to look anywhere else.. so many enthusiastic members.. am sure someone would post here the moment its done

By the way... am at 438... been here since Dec'17

My understanding is older letters are 100% - just your latest job might need an update every now and again (they don't expect you to go to all your past employers and re-issue reference letters every 6 months - same with police clearance certificates from countries you're no longer in)

IRCC agents might be watching this page and doing the evil laughs

honestly if they dont do a draw they are bunch of savages! and that would mean alot! it means that they strictly do not want to clear 440 and drop under 440! I am at 440! so if you are around 435 and if they do not do a draw today you better improve your point or start investing in another country!
