Please don't lose hope people. Try increasing your scores.
I have been in the pool since March 2017.

Maxed my ielts score now.
CRS : 394->406->417->475.

Note : Gave ielts 8 times:p

That difference of 7.5 and 8 in listening is extremely important.

@indpnv Why don't you give IELTS another try and improve speaking by .5 ? You can get 441 right ?

I am also at 438 (L8.5/R8.5/W7.5/S7) I have given speaking for EOR and writing 2 more IELTS while the EOR results comes out. (Sept 8th - IDP and Sept 29th -BC)

I will lose points in June 2019, so I am going to retake IELTS at least once a month and give EORs for every test until I reach 441 or till June 2019.

Yes, just came to know about that from the previous posts, but as the audience is limited should have lesser impact than a global test result release.

This is just tough to handle for the 430-ers unless they are the ones benefiting from the IELTS results and moving to 440+.

Hi guys, I have a question.

I already had fingerprint this April (used original copy for paper applicaton)

so now i only have copied fingerprint paper. Can i just scan it and upload it? Are there any difference between copied and original being scanned? because if they are going to be scanned anyways i think that's same thing...

Waiting for your answer, thanks!

Predictions:

If round is in two weeks: score will be 440 (round on Oct 3rd).
If round will be placed with 3 week gap, than my prediction is 447, round on Oct 10th.

Both with 3900 ITA released.
Instead, they might push the next draw to Sept 26th (3 week gap), then they need to do only 2 bi-weekly draws in Oct (on 10th and 24th).

Do you think there will be three rounds in October? Considering it's been every 14 days on Wednesdays pretty consistently here are the prediction dates for the upcoming draws :D

5-Sep-18
19-Sep-18
3-Oct-18
17-Oct-18
31-Oct-18
14-Nov-18
Most likely there would be a draw PNP/FST specific in early November going by the historical trend of late-May and early-Nov draws for PNP/FST.
