No one knows for sure how long this wave of CEC/PNPs is going to last, so if you're a FSW, don't rest still waiting for a miracle. Take advantage of that "standby" time for FSWs and look forward to improve your IELTS or learn french. When I did this back in March, when the CEC/PNP nightmare started, i was full of uncertainties, but for sure, it was just the best decision of my whole life.
The cost of just waiting could be just way too high.
So the draw pattern really links to the lockdown, exactly like last year: Ontario locked down: only cec pnp, phase 2 on July: alternate draws, phase 3: back with reg all program draws. The only thing you can do is to prepare when they reopen fsw, try to make ur crs 475+. Clearly that they are trying to give cec chances to extend their bowp, stay and work, especially in essential businesses during the lockdown

I imagine, if someone rejected his invitation, he would not be entering the pool, he is entering another limbo state.
Not a good start of the year, definitely.

According to the recent update, IRCC is processing CEC with full capacity. I think when they have a plan to process FSW they will start invite again. Now the backlog of FSW is too much.

Yes, I did. A useless piece of paper, anyway. At least for now.

nope. a little better. now I am thinking about giving my IELTS again just to increase few points.
That's great. No harm brushing up the English skill always. :) But I do wish the general draws to come back soon. I also spent 4 months waiting for them last year. And it was torturing.
