Yep the same, April 27th from memory. Looking at the immitracker it seems many applications went DIP around the same time. Still waiting...........
Yup mine as well but none of the hcp got nominated. U see only one profile got nominated from skills

Good to know we're both in similar positions! Yes, I think I see the same info as you - only one 2018 HCP application has received a nomination on the tracker (user: theam7). Correct me if you believe this was also Skilled French / Skilled Trades though? As that changes the picture slightly.

Ah ok - understood. The case I was referring to was HCP submitted 5th Feb and nominated 1st May (85 days later). However you're quite right - of the applications moved to DIP late April, none have received nomination yet. Everything seems to suggest OINP are intending to wait until close to 90 days before making a decision, which is somewhat frustrating! I could be wrong, who knows. I think we have no choice but to continue playing the waiting game. I'll try to remember to reply to this thread if I receive a decision anytime soon. Let me know, either here or PM, if you receive a decision as well in the next few days. Helps to manage expectations etc! Cheers.

I have seen a lot of people confused on this forum about whether accepting their NOIs or wait it out for the direct ITA. Although, the $ 1500 expense seems unreasonable to some people, I have always advised going for the safer option. Looking at the CIC draw today, I felt more confident in my decision of moving forward with the OINP application. To be honest I was also hoping to get a direct ITA even after submitting the application, but the current situation does not support it.

I think all of us hoping for EE in the 433 - 439 range who have accepted the NOI should consider themselves lucky and pray that everything goes smoothly moving forwards. Even if we still get a direct ITA moving somewhere down the line, we have taken the risk averse option. Considering the current situation of NOIs and ITAs I would recommend anyone left in the 45 days window of NOI acceptance to immediately move forwards with the application submission and hope for the best !

Hi All,
I am bit confused in terms of what do i make about today’s EE cut off, and I’m hoping if anyone of you could help me understand it

My CRS score is 408, and the application was submitted on April 21 2018. Now i know that the EE cut off is hanging on 440s, however people on the thread are hoping it would go down to 430s or 420s, however this being said, I’ve also see people sitting at scores less than 400, (which for an OPNP applicant isn’t it mandatory to have a score above 400?) But are hoping that, they would get selected soon. What am i missing here?

Can someone also help me understand the below information, where i could see people of scores 301 being selected or being sent NOI or ITA, how so?

People with lower CRS but with french and english skills, or job offers, received NOIs despite their score <400. So, after having complete de Nomination process (abour 4 months later of NOI), they received the extra 600 points... they got ITAs like that, despite having started with lower scores

Hi everyone,

We have created two profiles: 1- My husband as primary applicant, CRS 434; 2- Me as PA, resulting a CRS 374.

Regarding my profile, I got CLB level W7-S8-R9-L9 in TEF exam. That ´s why even if I have a lower score, we decided to create it because of my French skill.

My IELTS results are already expired so I don´t add points right now with english. I booked a new IELTS exam, but in my country it will be available until Jun 30. :(

So... in the meanwhile, do I get a chance to get a NOI via the FSSW???

Someone said to me that no,... because I need to have also mininum CLB 7 in English. And right now, I only have French.

Is it true? Both languages are needed?

If it is true, the I will have to wait until I get my IELTS results :confused: (and hoping to get that mininum... last results I got only 5 at english W :oops:)

Regards,

i did not give it a second thought, went bonkers when i got my NOI from Ontario as i was right at the lower end of their cut off at 433. 1500 is money well spent. looking at the current CRS trend i might never get a direct ITA.

I wouldn’t be too concerned. Mine was in submitted for two full months. Then assessment for one day, then swiftly onto DIP (been in DIP for one week now). The 60-90 day processing time from OINP seems to be what they are working torwards. If no change after 60+ days then might be worth giving them a call. But before that you will just get the usual “it’s normal” response. Good luck!
Pls share hwen
Just checked today. It has moved to "Decision In Progress". Not sure what does it implies in terms of timelines but still it's a change afterall.

Congrats Mate !! I wish u a Good luck .

could you pls answer after receivin 600 points its same like EE ( Direct ITA ) or process is SLOW for PNP Applicant

Keep updatin !!
