Dear Seniors,

Please help. My wife is main applicant and crs is 470 so she will get an ITA however her birthday is 17th Jan so on 17th her Crs will drop to 465.

Can we still go ahead and apply or do we need to decline and wait for next draw.
 
Her CRS won't drop due to her birthday after receiving an ITA.

Proceed with your application.

Thank you!! But some people suggested that Crs score only gets locked if you submit your application before birthday.

Birthday is the only exception to the rule. You're all good!!

No. Birthdays are an exception.

"When a change in age results in the candidate no longer meeting the MEC or having their recalculated CRS points score fall below the lowest points score in that round of invitations, officers should consider applying the public policy to exempt applicants for permanent residence from certain age-based requirements between invitation to apply and application, based on section A25.2. This consideration can result in an exemption from the refusal of an application under section A11.2.

This public policy also grants an exemption to applicants who may be refused for failing to meet FSWC program requirements when their birthday occurs between the ITA and e-APR."
