- Thread starter NikSharma01
- Start date
Well, there can't be a draw on monday if there is a downtime on Tuesday morning. Else, lot of people will be asking 'I have <score> and have not received the ITA'
Hahahahaha either Monday or Wednesday.. its soon no worriesWell, there can't be a draw on monday if there is a downtime on Tuesday morning. Else, lot of people will be asking 'I have <score> and have not received the ITA'
I wanted it to be Monday to submit my application next week. If it's Wednesday, my medical appointment would go to June 1st week.
I read this on CIC website guys. Please click the link and read yourself

Six selection factors – Federal Skilled Worker Program (Express Entry)
We use selection factor points to help assess your eligibility for the Federal Skilled Worker Program.
We’ll assess your selection factors and assign an overall score out of 100.
If you score 67 points or higher, you may qualify for the Federal Skilled Worker Program.
If you meet the other requirements too, you can submit a profile to the Express Entry pool. Once you’re in the Express Entry pool, we use a different system to rank your profile.
Work experience (maximum 15 points)
You can get points for the number of years you’ve spent doing full-time paid work (at least 30 hours per week, or an equal amount of part-time [15 hours per week for 24 months]) at skill type 0, or skill levels A or B of the 2016 National Occupational Classification.
To get selection factor points, your work experience will count if it was:
- in Canada or abroad
- while you were studying
- while being self-employed
Next Draw Prediction:
- Increase in Cut-Off for about 1 draw to 460+, though I hope its around the 455 mark. Dropping back to low 450's again and hovering around 445's (being optimistic)
- Increase ITA's to 3,750 or 3,900 from the upcoming draw.
Well...from the above link I provided. It say 1 maintainance from 11 pm Saturday until 6am Sunday then second maintenance is on Tuesday 2.30 to 5.30pm..Well, there can't be a draw on monday if there is a downtime on Tuesday morning.

Strongly agree. They have enough time to send invitation on Monday as the maintenance gonna be done Saturday night-Sunday morning. Then second maintenance not gonna happen until Tuesday afternoon at 2.30pm to 5.30 only. Therefore, still have fair chance for invitation to be send on Monday as well

The notification released on CIC “Sign in page” is a only sign for the upcoming draw on very next day. So, as usual, as notice is released for Tuesday, so draw will happen on preceding day i.e., Wednesday.
Ok guys, so since I brought up the topic of whether or not foreign worker can claim foreign work experience while being a full-time student in foreign country, I didn't sleep much last night as I was really worried that I would lose work experience points because of full time student status when I worked part-time...So, I browse CIC website to find info about it. So, I did and this is what I understand about these paragraphs stated on CIC website:
1. The prohibition of claiming part time work experience while being a full-time student only applies to CEC program applicants.
https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/immigrate-canada/express-entry/eligibility/canadian-experience-class.html
- have at least 1 year of skilled work experience in Canada, in the last 3 years before you apply. The work experience must be:
- full-time or
- an equal amount in part-time
- have gained your work experience by working in Canada legally
- managerial jobs (skill level 0)
- professional jobs (skill type A)
- technical jobs and skilled trades (skill type B)
You must show that you performed the duties set out in the lead statement of the occupational description in the National Occupational Classification. This includes all the essential duties and most of the main duties listed.
Self-employment and student work experience
Self-employment and work experience gained while you were a full-time student (such as a co-op work term) doesn’t count under this program.
2. For FSW program, applicants can claim part-time work experience while being a full-time student in foreign countries/other countries/outside Canada. As there is nothing mentioned about the prohibition in the FSW work experience eligibility page below:
https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/immigrate-canada/express-entry/eligibility/federal-skilled-workers.html#skilled
Skilled work experience
Skilled work experience means you’ve worked in 1 of these National Occupational Classification (NOC) job groups:
- Managerial jobs (skill type 0)
- Professional jobs (skill level A)
- Technical jobs and skilled trades (skill level B)
Your skilled work experience must be:
- in the same type of job (have the same NOC) as the job you want to use for your immigration application (called your primary occupation)
- within the last 10 years
- paid work (This means you must have been paid wages or earned commission. Volunteer work or unpaid internships don’t count.)
- at least 1 year of continuous work or 1,560 hours total (30 hours per week). You can meet this in a few different ways:
- full-time at 1 job: 30 hours/week for 12 months = 1 year full time (1,560 hours)
- equal amount in part-time: 15 hours/week for 24 months = 1 year full time (1,560 hours)
- full-time at more than 1 job: 30 hours/week for 12 months at more than 1 job = 1 year full time (1,560 hours)
We don’t count any hours you work above 30 hours/week
So, I'm so relieved about this. Thanks for your help everyone.
