    Most recommended PNP for 2020 (even OINP tech draw was too high)

    AFAIK, once nominated by a PNP, one gets 600 points added to their EE profile and a pick in the subsequent draw. It is difficult without job offer. Try getting a transfer from a US branch to Canadian one with a work permit, work a year or so to get some more points.

    Whats your CRS Score? It looks like even the minimum score for Ontario Notifications of Interest is high these days. There was a time when they invited folks with 400 and above. Seems like the demand is too high. Crucial time for 30+ folks in H1B...

    Thanks, even RBC bankers said there is one branch in US that i could use. But no matter what, if the money is deposited within US, wouldn't they end up generating income documents for the purpose of Tax etc?

    Receiving payment from US

    Yeah, i don't have any status in US other than a B1/B2 visa holder. Not sure if having income in US is recommended in this case. Looks like RBC is doing the right thing, they have setup International ACH Transfer (IAT). However, seems like not all US banks support this. Trying to get in touch...
