    Ray of Hope - 124th Draw

    If I were you I might not change to spouse not accompanying for just 2 pts increase. Unless there are other reasons e.g. losing age pts very soon and this is the last chance. Why don’t you explore some other options like improving IELTS from CLB9 to 10 on any single attribute will give you 3...

    Ontario PNP (OINP) 2019 Discussion Join Here

    Hey guys, About OINP, I just searched on their website and apparently they have issued almost 4500 nominations out of their 6650 quota this year by Aug 9, and more are ongoing as most of July 12 NOIs and all of Aug 1 and Aug 15 NOIs will get approved in the coming 3 months. If I didn’t get it...

    Just received OINP NOI!!! Feel so relieved now. If I would have known it, I wouldn’t have spent 400CAD to book IELTS for my spouse ;) and yes IELTS is crazily expensive here in my country... Now it’s just too late to cancel the test seat booking and I think I’ll wait till my spouse gets the...

    Ray of Hope - 124th Draw

    my predictions are: If nothing changes significantly based on current situation (e.g. no massive influx of [466+] profiles etc.) If draw happens on Aug 21 with 3600 ITA: Cut-off NO HIGHER THAN 463 with tiebreaker around Aug 13; with 3900 ITA (very unlikely): Cut-off NO HIGHER THAN 462 with...

    It says they will “ Safeguard and emphasize economic immigration ” Isn’t EE part of economic immigration?

    Ray of Hope - 124th Draw

    I used same logic as yours but slightly different assumption in score distribution, and my calculations are as following: July 24 after draw: [451-600] = [451-459] = 3990; Aug 12 before draw: [451-600] = 9657. Meaning, from July 24 - Aug 12, new adding [451-600] = 9657 - 3990 = 5667, among...

    The earliest batch of July 12 OINP tech draw would have received their 600 pts by Aug 21. I am less optimistic than you.

    458 doesn’t seem to have a chance within 2 months. Only 1 draw ago I felt quite safe at 458!!! Can’t believe it...

    Ray of Hope - 123rd Draw

    CIC once had an official reply to such questions and yes changing to spouse not accompanying to get higher CRS is acceptable. No need to tell lies. I believe someone in this thread shared the link earlier if you wish to have a double check. For me I still have a very high chance even with...

    Ray of Hope - 123rd Draw

    I am on the same boat. CRS with spouse accompanying but not taking IELTS is 458, if I change it to spouse not accompanying then I’ll be at 475. Losing 5 age points by early 2020. I’ve already booked IELTS for my spouse. Hopefully we could have 4-8 more points from it. 458 is already a good...

    Just booked IELTS CDT for my spouse. Results will come out by Aug 23. If he’s lucky enough to get a 6655 then we’ll get 8 more points. Finger crossed

    What a perfect math... so 3600 each, 10 draws in total. Sounds convincing to me.

    Ray of Hope - 123rd Draw

    Did some quick research on CIC website and seems 2019 target for (FSW+FST+CEC) is 81400 in total. Not sure if this is the correct / most updated info so I’ll just share the link here: https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/news/notices/supplementary-immigration-levels-2018.html

    Ray of Hope - 123rd Draw

    Hey everyone. I was just about to fall asleep and suddenly this thought strikes me.. CIC is skipping this ‘Aug 7’ draw intentionally, or to say they planned to do so and their reasons might be very simple: So that the rest of the months in 2019 each have 2 draws in bi-weekly pattern. Remember...

    CIC website says it’s ‘locked’ after e-APR (AOR): They must also be valid on the date you apply for permanent residence. However I am pretty sure I’ve read at least one thread by a poor guy who was asked for an updated IELTS results after AOR. Can’t remember the details but I think he...

    If I were you I would follow CIC website instructions as they are the decision makers. However test date and result date are pretty close... not a significant difference I would say. I also heard from others who were asked for additional documents of new IELTS results post ITA or even post...
