Why draws usually happen around 2:30pm UTC? Ottawa timezone is UTC-5, therefore, working hours go until 10pm UTC.

There are already 1000+ provincial nominations from Saskatchewan and BC post October 14 round. With Ontario adding more nominations, the cutoff could skyrocket, if the next round is limited to 4500 or less invitations

 

[Igethope]

Ontario will be nominating EE french speaker ........

I guess they still need clb 7 all through, despite my score, I have never got one from them.

 

[Tusher]

Its funny how the trend gets bamboozled whenever there is a chance of getting the CRS down

 

[Igethope]

Since so many accounts are still being updated, May till 11th then. Although they conducted some draws very late in the past.
And we desperately need one back to back to balance the Crs score again.

In the last draw, over 4239 folks got added in the queue in 2 weeks who had 471 or more score (If they were in Q for more than 2 weeks, they would have got invite in sept 30). that means on a avg 2120 potential candidate with 471 or more per week. If draw happens on next wed, with 4 week backlog, there is a good chance, we will have 8480 candidates with >= 471.

If they invite only 4500, then, looking at candidate distribution, it cut off may be in the range of 480 / 81. I really hope we dont have to wait for another week and / or they invite a much larger batch of ppl in next draw.

Note: This assumes the number of candidates and their CRS score spread is similar to the last 2 draws. It may not be a good representation of actual facts.

will it go down from there?.. or shall we expect future draws to be 480s!!!!!!!!

I hope it comes down. Lets Hope for the best. There is nothing much we can do apart from wait and see. Apart from learning French of course.

The cases in Ontario and the whole of Canada is again creeping up like anything. Hope this does not cause any issue to the upcoming draws.
I know how hard it is to wait with uncertainty.

The draw won’t happen this week because of Tuesday’s announcement wrt change in CRS points awarded to French speaking candidateshttps://www.cicnews.com/2020/10/why-canada-did-not-hold-an-express-entry-draw-this-week-1016207.html?_ga=2.105549699.1603229569.1604304813-amp-dRQFubLMk9KGceKhm3kEghNih6MDVaF9tUd0pk2r22Vv0Mq-kuEMCsLZt7vtZUUi

There should be b2b draw in December

 

[ravla]

There should be b2b draw in December

what is a b2b draw?

 

[izzyhu1106]

This is devastating. Seems it's time for me to forget about it.

 

[Rémi Beauséjours]

what is a b2b draw?

it means bareback draws

 

[nikhilkbhat]

Would a PNP draw before Nov 11th help in bringing the scores down a bit?
