Yes just read it. The draw will be there 100%.
Hate to say this but may be there wont be a draw today, its never been this late.
I just came back to the pnp draw on 18 mar 2020, it said the same thing in the instruction but they conducted the cec draw 5 days after that pnp

I am looking for a *scared* emoji here! Something that depicts the heart-breaking, gut-wrenching, soul-shattering fear of the next unknown that IRCC might drop on us!

Be relax my friend. I noticed some technical issues while trying logging into my IRCC account today. Sometimes some technical troubles delay normal operation. There will be a draw either today or early next week.

Yes! I am currently sitting at 467 and have had a long journey until here.
  • I got in the pool at 470 last February after WES delayed my ECA by 2 weeks.
  • Lost the feb draw ITA at 470 due to tie breaker rule.
  • Then, the 4th March draw happened at 471 (1 point higher than my score). This was when IRCC stopped FSW draws
  • In May, my score dropped to 465 due to age and I lost all hope!
  • Still managed to increase score in November to 467 with my spouse's improved IELTS score after 6 attempts
  • The last 2 Draws in December had 468 cut-off (again 1 point higher than my score) but they renewed my hope
This 6th Jan, I was waiting desperately for the cut-off to hit 467 or lower. Statistically, it should have. But, once again, IRCC changed things and broke the pattern when i was so close.

I guess it's not meant to be. Every time i come close, IRCC stops conducting all program draws. It's been so emotionally distressing.
Just change your strategy. You're focusing your energy in something that will not bring you a lot of points.
My path was very similar to yours... I was seating at 469 on January 2020, eagerly waiting for -2 points drop in the cutoff. That was when I realized I could learn **just a little bit** of french, and by March I attempt TCF just to get a B1 level on reading/listening in French. In the end, I ended up getting 6 extra points (CLB8 on both reading/listening), and my score jumped to 475... that happened 2 days before the CEC/PNP nightmare started. Yes. I just could not believe this was happening to me.

I ended up getting the ITA because I realized that after the CEC/PNP wave, the score would skyrocket, so I definitely would not stand a chance ate 469 (since I would lose 6 points by June/2020, once I turned 31 yr). So, I continued to study french between March and August, attempt TCF again, I my score jumped to 508 (would be 528 now with the newest french rules).

What I'm trying to say: all the energy you spent up until now on english, just for a 2-3 points increase, could have been dedicated towards french. Don't give up, just change your strategy! There's still **plenty** of time for you to overcome that.
