Ray of Hope - 73rd Draw

[Nabs17]

Provide me evidence of your number.....

Approval rate
Interestingly, the IRCC presentation also provides information on what portion of ITAs issued end up in an application being submitted and approved.

In the first two years of Express Entry, around 47,000 applications for permanent residency were received. About 85 percent of invitations result in an application, and of the complete applications that make it to the final decision stage, the approval rate is 97 percent. Consequently, in the majority of cases the issuance of an ITA results in the invitee being approved to become a permanent resident of Canada.

I guess those are legitimate numbers.

Cheesus! how many rounds interview do people have to go through for a job?? All my life, I've gone for just 1 interview to seal the deal.. Is it a norm in Canada?

In Canada and the US, generally 2-3 rounds, sometimes 5+ rounds depending on the company, especially at the bigger ones. For IT jobs, it's common to have initial phone screening (round 1 over the phone), then technical interview (round 2 in person or over the phone), then one or more interviews with those you'd be working for or with, and possibly a more senior person at the company (round 3 generally in person).

A common one will be that the system will have given you more experience than you actually have. Eg you have 2 yrs 11 months and 15 days, but because the system counts months it may give you 3 years n therefore more points than you deserve at that point in time.

Only the overall experience matters right? And I think we get max points for 3 years and more? Because one of my previous jobs I have 2 years and 11 months. Overall however I have like 10 years work ex.

2016 numbers for a start and youve been selective in your copy and paste it actually said 62% actually had the sufficent crs that that had ITA for i.e rest faked it........thats my point if it werent for people declining becuase they arent ready we would have a crs score that truely reflects the pool

You are mixing up things.

ITA can be wasted in 3 ways:
1. you will decline it
2. your application will be cancelled (missing documents, wrong points calculation)
3. or your application will be rejected. (misinterpetations, medical or criminal inadmisibility)

Now only app. 15% of all ITA would not be accepted (no application sent)
And only 3% are rejected.

So what is between are people that messed a bit with their documents (since CIC is rather picky when it comes to some of them).

In addition, they go after people landed, not ITA issued. Hence would there be lower % of wasted ITA, there will be also lower draws. (so that it will result in same amount of landed immigrants).

I know this might be the wrong place to post, but how long does the "proof of funds last"?
