Being curious, I tried filling some French scores (hypothetical, TEF):

Speaking: 226-270
Listening: 217-248
Reading: 181-206
Writing: 181-225

I only got 3 more points, from 463 to 466.

In English (IELTS):
If i improve my speaking from 6.5 to 7, others maintained. My score can jump to 471.

So for my own situation, i won't study French. The best i can do is to study and take IELTS again and again ... But i am really tired now ...
wow how do you have 6.5 in speaking and still scored 463 because I think there are bonus points for scoring 8777 (LRWS) and above.

Crs just got updated with spouse IELTS, from 455 to 467
I guess it's time to face other things and can only hope for the scores to drop.
New cabinet will be formed on November 20th, hopefully Minister Hussien conducts two more draws before new cabinet is formed and hopefully he retains his portfolio

Everything is weird this year. While we all hope there is a draw today. I wouldn't be surprised if there isn't one.
So so true...and I want to say that profusely!

yeah man, I think damage is already done, hopefully government settle down soon and everything get back to some stability, However it is not happening any time soon as Cabinet will be set on 20 November so nothing new we can expect, except regular draw on 30 Oct

Yeah they have wielded most brutal forces and ensured unpredictability this year. This is by ensuring longer gaps between draws and working in cahoots with PNPs, sharing a target and acting for lower target achievements etc. Its been haywire and a worst year for EE from applicants perspective!

Yes, you can after recieving Nomination and before accepting ITA. Make sure to inform Ontario about this change via personal information change form and update your spouse in EE before you accept the ITA.
Hi @neha_verma I endorse your view here but I am curious to learn if you have sought some consultation on this subject from anyone or have you done some research? If not, on what basis can you recommend that one can include spouse after getting a nomination from OINP?

Bear in mind that I am not challenging your view, but seeking information on the basis on which you make this recommendation. Cheers!

No, dear. May be the draw on 30th oct, 2019, but it will drop below 460 -- this is sure, and so many waiting from long time will surely get ITA. You have written something too high, & this figure has gone very rarely.
And as there have been elections recently in Canada, there are more chances of droping of csr score, inviting and giving more n more chance to candidates for pr

The Express Entry system doesn't work on sentiments. ITAs are issued based on merit. Seeing the extended gap between draws & the influx of high CRS applicants, the cut off for the next draw will surely be high.

I Have not spoken based on any sentiments. Lets see, whether it goes or drops. It is hardly question of 4-5 days. Ok. I am sure at my point ok. Lets have the draw, then will talk.
