You are on 432, you will get direct ITA in the next few draws, n I called them like 10 days ago n the operator told me to wait for 60 days before trying to know the status of the application, also, 2281 is for computer technicians which I worked in as, for the first two years of my job, the next two years, I worked in NOC 2147, also my bachelor's degree is in computer engineering which basically is 2147, so I don't see how NOC can be a problem

I share the same sentiments. I also hope to be in Canada by the middle of next year. The original plan was for the middle of this year, but my job offer fell through. :(
I hear you but i would suggest folks (waiting on HCP to reopen) to try and improve their scores for a direct ITA. PNP seems to be taking longer processing time than FSW.

Crs = 432
Submitted on July 25
Assessment July 25
Dip on August 20
noc 2281
Same recommendation/opinion like others..

go for direct ITA even after you receive nomination (you have 30 days to accept it in EE profile..)

so if you get nomination in few days..wait till next draw before you accept your nomination.. again my personal opinion..

I also agree with this. If you go direct ITA, you are free to live in any province you want whenever you want, and you will free up the spot for someone who really needs it. And some of us really need it because we have no other feasible way to increase our CRS in a timely manner. I for example am maxed out on IELTS and work experience, and I have a master's degree. I am having enough trouble finding a job at all, much less one with LMIA. I am a new beginner in French. A PhD would take years, by which time I would have lost way more points for age (my biggest weakness is my over 40 age) than I would get for a PhD. I have no family in Canada.

Does anyone have an idea on the number of invitations issued in the last draw?

It looks like 2,772 but the number of folks in the pool (as of 30th Aug) above 431 was just 1,957. One week can't explain another 815 folks being added to the pool. Where is this additional 815 invitations coming from? I noticed a similar trend in the previous draw as well.

After you accept the nomination, you will get an ITA in the next draw. The CRS score will likely come down in the next couple draws, if not the very next draw. The government workers are just returning from the summer vacation season. They might have more existing applications to catch up on, but soon they should be ready to process many more.

The draw was on September 6. The 1957 above 431 was as of August 30. 815 were added to the pool in the 7 days between August 30 and September 6.

If that is the case, i don't see the score dropping any time soon. No wonder, it increased by a point in last couple of draws.

Friends, need some advise. Right now i am at 400 points and awaiting the opening of OINP (In Nov will reduce to 395). I have maxed my IELTS and my spouse is currently at 8 and trying for band 9 (which will make our score 423). We are in US and with our age factor looming, we were checking all our options. My spouse's employer seems to be flexible to allow her to work remotely from Canada. For this to work from what i read it should be through a Canadian consultancy or PEO firm. If anyone on this forum has any details on this arrangement with such a firm and if you can please share it, it will help.
