    Ray of Hope - 78th Draw

    Another crappy draw, but I'm not too bummed out this time since my journey is slowly coming to an end. I just hope it's sooner rather than later; would be great to get there faster, and it'd be cool to get drawn at the same time as a lot of you folks. :cool:

    Ray of Hope - 77th Draw

    I'm not from the US, but luckily getting a PCC isn't hard at all where I live. I hear ya on the docs; updating is a pain. I'll be in the same boat having to ask for an updated reference if my score goes up before I get drawn, which I'm dreading since my boss can be a pain in the ass. Do you...

    Ray of Hope - 77th Draw

    Yeah, I really hope they'll lower the points early. I'm still feeling the sting from missing those draws in the 410s earlier this year. I've had my docs ready for so long now that I'll need to get my PCC and passport photo done again since it's been over six months! I feel bad that you gotta...

    Ray of Hope - 77th Draw

    Thanks, that's a super detailed answer! Again, you're making a lot of sense. The impatient side of me wants to go for it, but I know I'll probably be better off waiting just a few more months to save money and not complicate things. It's really a shame that the OINP takes so long, especially...

    Good point, I was thinking about this too. My bank lets customers get PDFs and paper statements too, so I wanted to be sure. What you said definitely makes sense considering there are an increasing number of online only banks that don't even issue paper statements. All the best with your OINP...

    Thanks everyone, I guess I'll try to do what seems most sensible if I end up applying. I wish the OINP guide was more clear about this. :rolleyes:

    Ray of Hope - 77th Draw

    Does anyone know whether it's alright to use online PDF bank statements (proper statements, not just screenshots) when applying for OINP, or do they have to be paper statements? Thanks.

    Fair enough, can't really blame you for wanting to go for that certainty. I guess it might be a better course of action for you than for me, depending on your circumstances. All the best. :D

    Thanks, appreciate that! All the best to you too. :D

    Ray of Hope - 77th Draw

    Thanks, I forgot to take processing times into account! I don't know, maybe I should just wait then. Seems silly to pay all that money for instant gratification when it might just end up taking a similar amount of time anyway. Also, the extra document requirements are making me nervous; the more...

    Ray of Hope - 77th Draw

    Registered for OINP, but I'm finding it very hard to justify spending $1500 CAD when I'm at 416 (going up to 441 in April) and perhaps only a few months away from getting an ITA. How's everyone else feeling?

    OINP work history section

    Hey all, I need some help with the OINP form. In the work history section, do I need to list all employment, or just the jobs I'm claiming points for? I only have documentation for the work I'm claiming points for. If I list all jobs, would it be alright if I only provided documentation for some...

    Anyone else slowly going nuts waiting? :confused:

    This isn't a forum that helps people who want to cheat. Don't lie on your application.

    Ray of Hope - 74th Draw

    How long are OINP NOIs valid? It says 45 days here: http://www.ontarioimmigration.ca/en/pnp/OI_PNP_EE_CAPITAL_FAQ.html "Once you receive your “PT notification of interest” you will have 45 days to submit a complete application to MCI." But here it says 6 months...

    So tempting! Don't wanna go to NS though, so I gotta wait some more. :(

    Ray of Hope - 74th Draw

    I'm trying to make peace with the fact that I'm (most likely) not gonna get drawn this year. If it's gonna happen in 2017, my only hope is the OINP. Let's see what happens. In any case, I won't give up.

    Ray of Hope - 73rd Draw

    I hear ya. I still can't believe I missed draw #65 (413 points) by just TEN DAYS because I entered the pool too late. I might just have gotten my PPR by now! :(

    Ray of Hope - 72nd Draw

    Not getting hyped today. I know it's most likely gonna take another 2 to 3 months for me to get drawn. Best of luck to everyone in the high 420s and beyond; spare a thought for us peasants!

    Looks like the reports of your death were greatly exaggerated! Glad you're still around. :D
