Ray of Hope - 112th Draw
- Thread starter RitzM
- Start date
My spouse is the primary applicant and she needs to score that extra points in Reading to get that score. Moreover, its very difficult to get the highest score of that kind. With just a Bachelors degree and spouse accompanying, all one can achieve maximum is 443 and we're at 440.
The thing is, its worthy to go for those three points when you're sure that you will get an ITA with 443. Last year, we all felt that 440 is the new low. This year, 445 or 450 "maybe" the new low. And regarding French, mastering a new language takes a long time and effort atleast for me, where we lose precious time of one year or more. Only option I see is my spouse doing a PG diploma that brings our score to 472 but I just wanna wait and see if 440 suffices for a direct ITA. Hope time gives us an answer!
You are correct on feeling 445 is the new low. I feel the same too. Last year 440/441 felt low.
Seeing more and more people joining its very difficult to predict if the score will fall below 440
Good luck!! Hope you get the ITA
+1 for that message. Love that movie and this statement.
For all the low 440's, Please hold on to your cards. Your turn will eventually come. Scores not gonna stick around 450's. It should eventually come to 440's range. Have patience.
Cheers

Yep, it is because there were 2,3 provinces which had issued PNP as a result there was a huge jump in teh CRS score.any other reasons why it jump from 438 to 457 beside 3 weeks gap?
Is it because of more PNP (600 points issued) or other reasons?
what is the chance of 445 now? My WP expires in Mid June
So far , there isn't any draw for the day so I assume there will be no draw for the day .
I think that, finally the draw will be on March 6th , One good thing is that there weren't any PNPs issued between the last draw(Feb 20th) and today , therefore the CRS score will be around 450 with a variance of +/- 2 .
Lets hope for the best and I wish that CRS score reduces and is in the range of 445 ( Too optimistic)...

Do you guys think there will be a draw this Wednesday, March 6 (given the fact that they are maintaining the website this Tuesday)?
Yes, it could be. It is never mentioned on CIC website that there won't be any draw post the maintenance day! So don't fall for these rumours.
I am surprised to see that there are 2 back to back system maintenance Tuesday Feb 26, 2019 and Tuesday March 5, 2019 .
Not sure what's in the store. Why would anyone do back to back system maintenance ?
It could be because everyday a great number of applicants are registering and entering into the pool, which might be affecting the overall traffic of the website. So, to handle and deal with that much applications, they would be undergoing the maintenance process frequently.
Plus, it is a good reason for them, to prevent the applicants from registering for that period, so that meanwhile they can deal with the other applications which are currently being processed and they can relax for a while.
