Indeed. See the detailed breakdown of CRS points here: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/express-entry/grid-crs.asp Right under "Points breakdown, section by section" is the chart that shows you how many points you get at each age. Notice how you lose 5 or 6 points per year starting from age 30...

Oh I hate waking up from such a good dream! I don't see why people wish you "sweet dreams" because it's painful to wake up from a sweet dream. A few months before the US presidential election last year, I had a terrible nightmare that Trump won the election ... and while it was nice to wake up...

That's a very good score. You should get ITA soon. From recent trends and discussions, if not the next draw, then likely the next one after.

Thanks :) Did you apply for OINP?

Count me in! That sounds like a nice adventure.

Not that I have seen. Let's start one here! I am an American who lives in New York. Are you also American? Where in the country are you?

They need to hire IT workers from the EE pool to fix their website ...

I've been feeling much better since joining this forum. I had often been feeling sad and discouraged. My job search that I began at the end of March was really getting me down, especially after I was rejected last week for a job I had really wanted, and I am still waiting on another company that...

We all need to meet up and celebrate when we land in Canada! What better way to start our new lives in a new country with friends already :)

Sorry, I listed my bachelor's in the EE system but did not select that I had an ECA for it. I got ECA only for my master's (in hopes of expediting the ECA process, which might have worked because I received my ECA only 13 days after I had created my order with WES) and selected in the EE system...
