Ray of Hope - 147th Draw - CEC
- Thread starter 13nitinsharma
- Start date
There's a difference between the next best legal time to immigrate and the best economic time to immigrate. Obviously, immigrating right now is not optimal but there's no indication that the government has reduced immigration quotas. If people are willing to immigrate under these conditions (and facing economic hardship) then there's nothing stopping them.
CEC will not fetch 600+ points if 600 is the minimum cut off, PNP will be the only option.
This might be the best time for people to add additional Canadian degree or certificates to their CV to better their opportunities to landing great jobs.
Yes, you can submit post aor now. Just attach LOE that you could not get them because of covid19
Nope. There are way better candidates too in the pool. Nothing related to launching of IELTS
If IRCC issues draws, no ne can arrange docs now
Once situation eases, they will invite ppl. Simple as that.
Probably from mid June all draws will happen
IRCC will pay no heed to opening or pausing IELTS
Less candidates in the pool is directly proportional to lower CRS
FYI - PNP candidates with just 698 too were invited. Imagine the candidate without provincial nomination, has just 98 CRS points (barely with CLB 4 or 3).
A friend of mine, who studied in Canada, worked there for 4 years, got only CLB7 and has a score of 452. He got the ITA 4 days ago
So IELTS is equal to nothing to IRCC for consideration
They have many other tasks to handle
IELTS is not happening till AUG
But draws will keep happening
Hope now u understand that IRCC will not wait until your so called 'best candidates' to enter the pool but will keep inviting ppl from pool as usual
Hello guys, I got a CRS score of 452, I was not able to get the ITA the last draw because of the tie breaking rule (Oct 10, 2019), I created my EE profile December 5, 2019. Now, I was thinking to retake the IELTS exam next week here in Vancouver, BC (since they're opening now) to increase my score. Do you think I should wait for another draw (May 15 possibly) before taking the IELTS? I am not sure if it makes sense to retake the IELTS or wait a lil' bit, I am still hoping that the CRS will continue to go down, but its hard to just rely on that.
Never wait for scores to come down. Do your bit and take the test. If scores come down, you get an ITA and you have nothing to lose. If scores don't come down and your IELTS score is good, you have everything to gain.
Book your test. The only thing you've got to lose is probably money. The next draw might be a general draw, never say never. Better to be safe than sorry.
IELTS is happening in Nigeria again. Some of the centres conducted tests yesterday (Saturday).
I learnt they are re-opening in Canada this week as well.
