Ray of Hope - 85th Draw

[Tech_girl123]

My express entry profile was created on 30th December 2017. I can see that according to the new Ontario's PNP has issued NOI to profiles created
from CRS score range: 441-433 and Date Express Entry profile submitted: January 1, 2018, to February 22, 2018.

If i create a new express entry profile is there a possibility to get the notification of invite. My score is 435 and still haven't received any invitations yet

i have a question, my wife is the main applicant,our score 435,got NOI FEB 12,her ielts expires march 6, so she retook it this feb, scored just out, we lost 6 points if we add the new score, 429....my question, do we must accept the NOI with our first official score 435 otherwise we lose it if new score is calculated?thx

I am not sure about this. But based on the OINP criteria, CRS 400 would be enough to be eligible for OINP, so the new IELTS scores should be good.

I think he/she is asking a question.

OINP sent ITAs to 441-433. If I'm to guess, the next draw, if it happens tomorrow, will be at 442.

No chance for CRS 442 cut off if the draw happens today (Feb 28) with 3000 ITAs. You can expect the cut off to be around CRS 438 if the draw happens today with 3000 ITAs.

If you look at the trend, they invite points just below the express entry cut off

OINP is looking at the previous draw's cut off score (in this case 442) when they issue NOIs.

Hi Folks,
I have a query. I received OINPs LOI on 9th Feb. My CRS is 440. I was hoping that in the last draw (21st Feb ) it'll get cleared.
The last day for OINP submission is 22 March. Also I have got to know that if enough profiles are submitted OINP might close the submissions.
So please advise if I should wait for next draw or submit the profile with OINP?

@abhishek_89 and everyone else....please help....

Considering 2 week gap draws with 3000 ITAs, 2-3 draws would be good enough for CRS 440 folks which means worst case scenario should be April 4th draw.
But if CIC goes with a 3 week gap draw things could change.

Thanks!

My hunch is 442/443 again if it is next week. Too many in the fray. Waiting impatiently at 441

If the draw happens next week (March 7th) with 3000 ITAs, the highest the cut off could go is 441.

No but everyone is hoping including me the chances are very low

OINP is issuing NOIs only to profiles created after Jan 1, 2018. So, yes if you recreate your profile, there is a possibility of receiving NOI but no guarantee as OINP does not send NOIs to all folks within that score range.

CIC never announces the draw dates. It mostly happens on Wednesdays with a 2 week gap. So the highest probable date for the next draw is Mar 7th. Sometimes they do the draw with a 1-week or 3-week gap. Hence, there is some chance for a draw today though the probability is very less.
