Most probably, yes! Let's see if its tomorrow, this week or after a fortnight

Can't they just invite the 147,688 and meet their target for the year

Ideally that would make more sense.. Have lesser but large draws. Like if they pull 25,000 out, the score would come down to 451, and they can then hold for another couple of months and conduct another draw. Of course this is only applicable for FSWs who were very hopeful after the immigration targets were given, only to spend the first 3 months of the year in disappointment

Is there any hope for FSW draw?

attaching a copy of CELPIP/IELTS results are not mandatory, right? we just need to provide all info in profile, but missing to attach actual scan will not cause rejection?

As far as I know, you need to have your Test Report Form when submitting your documents after ITA. So you’re right. You just need to put necessary info (test results, test reference number, etc) when creating a profile.

Yes, not mandatory but recommended to attach.

FSW draws will happen no matter what happens. Its just these are being put on hold for sometime.

152000 odd was the number of profiles in the pool when the draw happened on Feb 13th . 27000 odd profiles got an ITA..

Now as of March 1st the pool shows 147000 odd people.. what the hell is going on?

Have all the people inside canada who qualify under CEC without ECA, have these guys just woke up from sleep, written IELTS and flocked into the pool???

It's impossible to have 22000 odd FSW profiles come inside the pool in 3 weeks!!

How do people who receive an ITA get off from the pool? Do they need to accept the ITA and submit document? If that is the case, then it clearly shows that thousands would not have accepted/rejected ITAs and this can be the case of fake profiles in the pool.

However, one should not discount the possibility of 22,000 entering the pool in 3 weeks also.

21000 people in the pool now between CRS 460-600 , it's growing , not sure when FSW's door gonna open
