Guys If you are a day trader then there are very high chances that you would lose your capital pretty quickly but if you become a wise steady longer term trader then getting higher reward is more likely. So don't be a day trader and burn your hope just after a draw, be a strong longer term optimistic participant you will be rewarded your golden opportunity on due time, after all immigration process demands extra patience and efforts.
Good Luck to all. I am still sticking with my hope to see record breaking low CRS cut off by mid 2018!
 
Hello Everyone!

Any hopes for people with 427? With the steady increase of applicants in the pool and CICs biweekly draw when can one expect to get an ITA realistically? I had seen people making close predictions on the scores earlier. Can you give an estimate?

I was waiting at 433 and drop to 427 last week due as I had my birthday.

Thanks a lot people! You all are doing a good job by bringing us together and keeping the hopes up!
 
Draw in every fortnight is much better than having a back to back draw and followed by a 3 week gap..
Learnt this from CIC in the last 4 months.
 
If this is right then a PNP ITA received trough express entry is not part of 74,900 PR target for 2018. It would be part of 55,000 PNP PR target.

Keep in mind that total economic immigrants target for 2018 is 177,500 not 74,900

75k is a number for Federal Skilled Worker Program, Federal Skilled Trades Program and Canadian Experience Class not people going trough OINP for example.
Not really.
Every pnp has seperate programs for ee, and their own.
Provinces have minimum 4 options.
If one recieves pnp through ee, he/she will be processed under ee profile only.
However, if person has applied seperately under pnp's , their files are processed by their respective provinces.

Well, the first draw of this year was lesser than the first draws of previous years. I hope that the CRS might decrease up to 420 by May. Hope for the best. Meanwhile, why don't you have an eye on Ontario Nominee program? you are eligible for that as well.
 
My CRS is currently 435 and I registered back in October. To the best of my knowledge, Ontario has sent NOIs to candidates 2 times after I created my profile but I haven't received one. I have 2 questions:
1. Is there a reason I didn't get an NOI?
2. Can I create a new profile and also keep my current profile if Ontario starts issuing NOIs, since I hear they only send invites to newer profiles?
 
First of all you all are too pessimistic, it is annoying.
Now to fact.

FSWP, FSTP, CEC minimum target is 72700
PNP minimum target is 53000. (I know each province have different programs but let's assume they allocate 30% to express entry nominees that is 15900)

What you all fail to understand is all PNP for economic programs comes to the pool too and receive ITA, so we are going by the minimum that is 88600 ITAs
Assuming two weeks between draws, that is 26 draws and 3400 per draw.

So there have to be a reason for the low number of ITA and my opinion is straightforward.

ITAs are low cos PNP for 2018 are not yet in full throttle. If you notice PNP in the last few draws have been below 400, so I believe once PNPs start coming in, ITAs will increase.

Stop the pessimistic calculation.

Also Ontario will most likely get the largest allocation of the PNPs and I just checked and almost all their programs comes through the ITA route.
 
Anyone answer me please..

It's just a matter of having the funds to take on that extra expense of 1500CAD, provided you submit everything on time and in the way OINP wants it to be, which will lead to extra 600 points and an ITA in the next draw for sure.

And I think at 438, you still stand a chance. Before the next PNP NOIs are rolled out, you'll probably get to see at least 3 more draws, which may give a clear picture if you need to take OINP, provided you get invited.

So, unless you have an NOI with you now, all you can do is patiently watch, how it goes for the next few draws. All the best!!

Well it’s always better to have a bird in hand than two in bush. The classic case of indecision.
If you get Ontario Nomination, keep it, and you will get around 45 days to submit documents.
If you see the scores going down and you get direct ITA, you can always reject the provincial nomination.
Being on ROH I suppose you know that one should never loose hope.

That way atleast you have peace of mind.
1500 CAD, in the long run might not be that big an amount, weighing the stress and trauma you have to go through, if your journey had been too long.
Decision is yours.
All the best.
