Express entry draw delay

[Abhi11_]

Hi, after looking at some of the threads, I am assuming there is nobody who can predict the future date for the draw. Last draw was held on March 4, and now it was expected on March 18.
There is no update as of now.
I am at a decent score, I was hoping this draw would be the one I qualify. Moreover, my post graduation work permit expires in a weeks time. looking at the current conditions in terms of coronavirus, Is there any way I can apply for extension? I don’t wish to leave the country and would like to continue working at my current job. I feel stuck, please let me know if there is anyway I can make it work?

Applicants with PNP are receiving ITA since yesterday evening. Likely the person that updates the website is working from home.

Hi Tresh,
I am also in a similar situation. I have a decent CRS score and i was expecting ITA in this draw.
Are you saying that there was a draw but they have not updated it on the website yet?
If this is true, when do you think they will update on website?

Yes - there was a draw targeting PNP applicants. Not posted on the web site yet.

So, it was not for direct express entry applicants??

You would need an approved LMIA from your employer to continue working.

No, there doesn't appear to have been. Based on who received ITA on this forum - they were all PNP. So looks like the draw was PNP specific.

I Guess we have to wait 2 more weeks for the draw....

I hope the conditions improve in the next few weeks. I am also assuming the draw will be greater since more people would be trying to get in the pool.

Isn’t the PNP draws supposed to be province specific? All the provinces have different requirements and the time period they take to process them vary.

No - not the Federal / ITA draw.
