Ray of Hope - 141st Draw

[kiwissima]

Yes only PNP nice.... so bad that Ontario isn’t processing current “nomination in progress” and I’m waiting for my nomination (pre Coronavirus ) to be processed indefinitely

Although no FSW since the past 46 days, at least PNPs and CECs are seeing something happening.
Just one FSW draw (3900) can plummet the CRS to 466 and below.
So there is indeed a small ray of hope

Guys my ielts will be expiring in December 2020, I already have NOI from ontario and applied for it on 23 march. How long does ontario take for nomination?

Is it just me or someone else noticed that the tie-breaking rule was 18th December 2019 (I know they wrote 2020 by mistake). I'm guessing they conducted two draws but only released one results hence, another result is imminent. Could be CEC-specific though with maybe 465 - for the tie breaking rule to be that far. Because come to think of it, there was only 479 candidates above 600 as at 5th of April. How did they get the 698 figures? Did 219 fresh candidates above 600 enter the pool between 5th and today 9th? That highly probable. The next draw would be class specific as well, I just can't say if it's going to be CEC only or FSW only, but definitely not FST.

They've just hiked the fee for permanent residence programs, effective April 30 9am ET. May be we see a general draw that afternoon? Wishful thinking??

They said it was done based on one index report. They expect to increase it again by 2022. The kind of money that goes into this process is starting to stress people. Imagine a family of 4? $825X4? That's crazy mehn.

I don't want to be too optimistic but I think the next expected result would bring the CRS down to something like this.

825x2(ADULTS) + 225x2(KIDS) + 500x2(RPRF)
I assume you don't mean 1 husband and 3 wives or vice versa for it to be 825x4 lol.

Lol, no. I meant 1 man, 1 woman and 2 kids.

No one knows given the current situation. I have applied in February and still no nomination.

New CEC draw has just been updated. CRS 464. Congratulations to all the ITA clinchers!

That isn't too bad for getting Canada's PR at all.

Safe to say FSW draw won't happen anytime soon. Sad reality.
