I know 472 can be considered a decent score to wait at. But IRCC has been so unpredictable that everything we achieve looks less. I started my journey with 462.

Seriously just chill. 472 is an awesome score. I got an ITA in September with that. One missed draw won't sky rocket the CRS. Seriously guys with 470+ scores, JUST CALMN DOWN!
Hi, has anyone here seen any movement of scores in their profiles due to the new french/bilingual additional scores? When I check my scores using the CRS calculator, I can see that I have 20 additional points but when I check my Express Entry profile, it remains the same - no additional 20 points.
It will take two weeks to update all profiles, this was said in 20/10/2020. So give them another week.
Hi, I learned French from scratch. Like you, I didn't know anything about it. It took me 1 year and 4 months to master it. I used apps and an online learning tool for 4 months to get ready for my French classes in France cause I wanted to start at level B1. Then, I studied French in a language school in France and lived with my French boyfriend's family for 1 year so I was in total language immersion. I was aiming to get NCLC 7 in all 4 parts of the French test (I took TEF). It took me 3 tries to succeed in getting NCLC 7 in all 4 areas of the test. It was challenging to say the least because you don't just need to learn the language and take the test, you need to get a specific score in all 4 parts to be able to obtain sufficient points in the Express Entry system. All the best to you!
Alright. Thank you! I'm too impatient to see the movement in my scores, I guess. Lol
TCF writing and speaking appear easier than those of TEF. I find TEF listening easier than TCF because the audio is repeated twice in certain sections of TEF. TCF listening requires a greater deal of concentration. This is my own opinion

It's still 462 now, should be 482 after the additional scores are incorporated into it. I'm waiting for the updates to be shown on my EE profile. What about you?
What i can think in terms of the impact of the new changes (BTW, only time and the next few draws will give a clear picture):
Immediate impact: French skilled people who had low CRS will quickly jump to a higher score. The next couple of draws at least will be of them. Scores may well be above 480s.
Long term impact: People who had exhausted every possible means and were above 35, would be in the range of ~ 440-450. If they had already invested in learning french, they will buckle themselves up and in next few months, they will move to higher scores and will get invites.
Folks will not essentially invest in getting CLB 10 in IELTS but will move to learning french instead.
Not so good news for people who were fortunate because of their age and were between 470-475. They would need to start learning french from scratch and will still take at least a year to get to the french proficiency.
Canada was attractive only because of the ease of the immigration process. But now, it has become very difficult. Also, unlike other countries like Aus/US/UK, where while the immigration process is difficult, the job market is strong, for Canada, the struggle actually started after you get the PR because you want to then start hunting for a job etc. Dont think this mad rush is worth it..
