Ray of Hope - 133rd Draw

[ContactFront]

havent received. 24 hours done. what should i do?

When was your profile created. Yesterday before draw? If it wasn't fully submitted it could miss the draw

 

[Aitha]

As of now
Crs with spouse 462
Crs without accompanying spouse 473
Eca of spouse due on 03.01.2020

After ECA crs 470

Seeing the CRS trend from last 3 months my question is, should i apply alone without spouse? My profile is currently in pool from last 2 months.
Also can i apply two different express entry profiles under same account as one my profile is already in the pool with same personal details

I suggest you wait for your spouse's ECA and then apply. 470 is fine for 2020 (if not almost everyone in this forum are doomed). Because it would be a lot of work to apply for your wife's TRV and then the work permit and then for PR.

470 and on 18th dec will be 465 ... feeling very frustrated

If there's draw on 18th I feel like cut off score will come down to 465-467 if population in 451- 600 group is below 9,000

With a four weeks gap, we might be seeing 480 in Jan 2020, and with so much density of people on each score, coming down to 470 seems tough.The next FST draw might be coming in April 2020.

Remember people said after the election break scores will be 480 and they ended up being lower...

People also said due to maintenance notice this tuesday there wont be a draw but draw still happened..

Have some hope.. Isnt that what this thread is all about.. Also in all previous FST draws its never happened before May 15 so what source do you have indicating its coming in April..

Also I dont see as many people entering the pool over the holidays , most IELTS centres will observe some kind of break too ... Same with the Evaluation Bodies like WES

Also there is still a chance of B2B.. Lets just do what we can and be patient

With 3600 ITAs, you'd've been in.

The point is if there is any draw left

With 3600 ITAs, you'd've been in.

Both of us are having visitor visa, so going together is not a problem

QUERY
I have an active EE profile in the pool, do not see an ITA anytime soon (CRS-417). Can I apply for a visitor's visa in the meantime with my EE profile still online, or could it pose a problem?

you need to show strong enough ties to back home, no immigrant intent and a solid reason why you are visiting. Usually a high paying job and property would be strong enough evidence to show ties.
A profile creation is not applying for PR and does not by itself show immigrant intent.

Please correct me if I am wrong here. I'm assuming I'm on the safe side here. I am currently in the pool with 468 points, I am pretty confident scores will drop as we enter 2020. I hold a PGWP, and it expires in December 2020. I will hit 2 years of work experience in November 15, 2020 (I currently have 1) and my score shoots up to 493, now god forbid the CRS scores don't reach that level lol. I understand that time is not on my side, but assuming there's a draw after I hit 2 year experience and I receive ITA, I will receive some sort of code and then with that code I apply for Bridging open work permit right? And I get implied status and I can continue to work and live in Canada correct?
Lastly just to drop some positivity, For those holding on between 465-471, its just a matter of time before you get your ITA, don't let this 472 and 471 scare you off right now hopefully your permits aren't expiring or becoming 30 before that lol, while at the same time if you can definitely try increasing your score.

You can apply for the BOWP once you get an AOR which is sent by IRCC after you make your electronic Application for Permanent Residence (e-APR) following an ITA

Love your positivity , I believe the scores will drop as well to at least mid 460s

I have good property, and my family won't be accompanying me. A friend's marriage should be a good enough reason for a visit. This is just what I think.
I met a guy yesterday with the same query, and he answered that I won't get a TRV because of active EE profile.
Well, I understand that EE profile is not a PR application, I think consultants are not that bright. Canada doesn't even know of the profile owners unless they upload the documents and pay the fees.
I think I should give it a go then. Thanks man.

You can try raising a CSE for the rejection. It may take a few weeks but I have seen where persons files were reopen especially if the information was provided. You can even raise the case and attach the original document. It doesn’t hurt to do it as it’s not going to cost you any money.

I didn't get raising CSE, i googled it , you mean webform? I have sent 2 webforms and attached my docs.

I learnt French from bonjour intensively for 6months. Wrote TEF the 7th month. The French route is very rewarding and can give up to 50points if you have maxed ielts. In my case I got 45. Explore it if you can

Can you guide me where to start and if you were in india ,than guide me the process for the exam. As i m confused if we can directly appear for exam or need to attend cources?

Do you know french already? If not, you have to learn French by enrolling in a French school first or get a private teacher. You cant write the exam if you dont know french

I am also in a similar position as you, my CRS is maxed out at 469 with CLB 10 in IELTS and I lost 5 points due to age last month but unlike you, my CRS will drop to 463 next November, hopefully I get an ITA before then.
