Okay. Does the reference letter have to be on company letterhead? That's what it says on the website. But same problem, neither my supervisor nor my self have any current ties with the company.

Hello, I previously worked with a company for 3 years (1.5 years on contract and 1.5 years full time on US H1B visa). During the contract phase, the company which i was working with had hired another recruitment/payroll services company to handle the payments and we were given offer letters...

It depends on the type of person you are. If you are very social, nosy and always like to be surrounded by people and extrovert type then you will find it hard in Canada or US. In general the people and the culture in these countries is like that. People are reserved, independent, business...

^^^^ 2 draws have taken place in october and that's what the trend has been so far : around 2 per month. Next month there will be 3 draws because of the 3 alternate Wednesdays. They usually keep it 2 weeks apart so that they get enough time to process the ITAs. It is unlikely that they will...

Oh. Well, now you won't need a work visa once you get a PR. 8)

Oh..don't they have a grace period or something..like 2 months in which you can find another job?

Right...the multiple choice question section is the hardest in Listening. Luckily I got small statements as answer choices and were fairly straightforward unlike those long answers which are difficult to grasp in half a minute.

I lost 6 points for IELTS. Don't wish to retake the exam just for those 6 points. Good thing is that i wont be losing any points until next September. So patiently waiting at 459. :)

I hope the scores come down before they make any changes that would be detrimental to our selection.

LOL :P

Curious to know: What's a job offer without LMIA? Is it just an agreement between you and the company? If the company decides to hire you do they still have to go through the LMIA process or can they just give you a 'job offer' on the basis of which you can get 600 points, seek your PR in a...

If you have a job offer then why would you go for PNP? You already have those 600 points for EE.

Well we still don't know how many are there at what scores but for sure the number is more as the scores get less. I hope the number of ITAs goes up too to balance it out.

Ouch for that 6.5! I was scared of getting a 6.5 in speaking but managed to get a 7, which was a big relief. It kind of sucks that a 6.5 can bring everything down but that's how it is. Go with full confidence for your next test!

In a couple of months.

Interesting situation. Not sure if they consider the age when you receive invitation or when they receive your application. Most probably it is when you receive the invitation as they cannot revoke that once they send it.

Right...5 draws left Nov: 2, 16, 30 Dec: 14, 28 But there should be a large number (at least 1500+ ITAs) each draw to clear 460s and 450s as there are much more people in this range compared to previous few draws that cleared some 470s and 480s.

Is there a specific quota they have to fill by the end of the year, for them to have 3 draws in a month? If yes, then any idea how many ITAs are yet to be given till end of year?

I think the next draw will be 2 weeks later. Last week's draw was a result of that missing draw in the previous week.

Initially I thought you are an American citizen immigrating to Canada, but now it makes sense. I was in the same position. Need to be on h1b for a while before they process your green card.
