Ray of Hope - 125th Draw
- Thread starter NikSharma01
- Start date
I think the government is just popularizing and marketing the program better now - leading to more applicants. People with higher scores are just a by-product of more applications. There are also more people applying in the lower to mid score ranges, however, given that cic's draw sizes aren't increasing by as much, it's candidates with higher scores that are getting ITAs.
A few other factors to consider:
1) America's lockdown on VISAs leading companies and candidates to Canada.
2) People in the pool doing things to improve their scores - if you're in your twenties, adding work ex or language skills can easily take you over the 470 mark. If you happen to have completed a master's degree from a reputed (recognized internationally) university, a 470 is a given.
People in the 450s might need to:
1) Ace the IELTS
2) Get ECAs from other orgs to see if they're more favourable.
3) Explore less popular PNPs
4) Learn french (3-4 months intensive study)

Since April (Last time time break was before April) people are scared and trying to get more marks. So there is a lag and other factors such as HQB1 visa etc... it will be like this for two three months. Hope it will come down soon.
Mark my words. You will. I am pretty pretty sure, year end cut off would be around 450.
How in this world can it shoot to 463 when people are saying around 1500 nominations to come in 4 days.
From 31st to 2nd they were not working, till yesterday there were no nominations given to 12th July oinp draw people (as far as I know only limited ones got their nomination)
Ainp, sinp nos. Are not that big to spike up the score to this level.
Only CIC knows the answer
Indeed disappointing to see this and then there are negative people who are now showing up to rub it on our face.
Not a good end to the day.

Have you considered another FSW delay? That will kill the hope for 450s. Just saying. I have found another plan but you need your own. Sitting here praying doesn’t work, at least for the past four months. Waiting for another b2b is like waiting aimlessly.
Lol, your silly post didn't age very well did it
.It's just 2 points below 465 and not well below 460. Seems like some people here don't understand the dynamics here, and I ain't one of them.
Please look up the meaning of words "year" and "end" on Google.. I hope using them together doesn't confuse you much..
Furthermore, could you modify rules that prohibit me from viewing your profile?
I really want to hit the Ignore button
I concede man. You get the bragging rights. Your wild shot actually landed. Who would have thought.Lol, your silly post didn't age very well did it

Yes! Whew. Finally, our expensive tuition fees and hustle to get NOC A jobs in Toronto is finally paying off. Hope I don’t screw up the application. Good luck, everyone. You will get it.
I ll be in 480s by Q1 of the next year. So I am not worried. Besides, I am just 24. I still would have study route to fall on to, if everything else fails, but well, I don't want it to come to that.
And as for what I said, it is a reasonable assumption. Now obviously, it doesn't have to be that way, but given the annual target, it has to be. Next draw would clear the picture.
