    Ray of Hope - 103rd draw

    oh man, you missed by a very close margin last time. The cutoff last time was Sept 18th. I am guessing you should make the cut this time. Especially if it happens today you will make the cut IMO

    If drraw happens tomorrow I can see the score falling to 439. Not sure about 438. There are many thousands of people between 430 and 440. You can find exact figures online. So I don't know. But there is a chance

    Ray of Hope - 103rd draw

    My Landing appointment experience - Vancouver, BC

    Thanks for the answer, you are actually right, it is CAD 23,181 for a family of 4. We are a family of four. Me + wife + 2 kids. I already stated in my EE (on which I got the ITA) that I will bring 27k with me. So does that mean I can dip below 27 but stay above 23,181? Or does that mean I need...

    Express Entry award points early and I got ITA

    then you should decline the ITA. 496 is a very high score. The last cut off was 440. You should be very safe. The chances are that if they reject your application at a later stage saying that you didn't qualify at the time of ITA then you will have to do everything all over again and will have...

    Regarding Old Passport

    I don't know. CIC does ask for pages with stamps on passports. For example I get this message for my passport If you have a passport, you must provide a copy of: the page that shows your birth date and country of origin, and any pages with stamps, visas or markings.

    Express Entry refusal
