Its 19:30 pm UTC....has it ever been this late? The most delayed draw seems to have happened on 15/11/16 that too at 17:54 UTC....should we still be hopeful for a draw today?
The draw on 24th Jan, I saw the update after 02:00 PM CST. Now its 1:37 CST. I do think there is a chance for the result to show up from a time perspective.

Hello Seniors in the house, I have a question.After submission, I embarked on trip meaning I have an additional travel history.Do I have to inform CIC as additional information or it is not necessary?

Good luck today guys
No. You don't need to tell IRCC your travel history once you've submitted your application.

Will we know if there is no draw today ? So I’m guessing if not today then next wed.
We can only wait out the next few Canadian working hours and decide...if no draw today, obviously on next Wednesday but with less hopes of reduced CRS :(

This is real time
Date and time of round: January 24, 2018 at 13:38:00 UTC
That is the time they make the draw. Not the time they post the update. 13:38 UTC is 07:38 CST. I am absolutely sure there was no update in early morning. :)

Is that the only main reason? It doesn't seem a lot. It is worth paying for it as you wouldn't suffer the headache of waiting CRS cut off to decrease.

I did read somewhere as well it takes longer to get PPR? May be that's another reason.
In this instance, time is not an issue. Yes, PPR may take longer time but how long would one have to wait to get direct ITA? Imagine if you had to wait 6months to get direct ITA, the time would have been spent processing OINP? I think the bone of contention is the processing fee and the fact that one is constrained to reside in Ontario.

How delay is the ONIP processing compared to ITA in general? Any rough idea?

Meanwhile guys, can anyone please tell what happens if CIC doesn't agree with occupational NOC selected by candidate?
I see lot of grey areas here, anyone with such experience?
Cheers
