No ITA yet

Me too, I am 478. I didn't get an ITA yet. When I logged in my CIC account, it says "No nomination at this time" in my profile. Any idea?

Congratulations!! My friend.

Congratulations to all of you guys who got ITA. I appears that those outside Canada, need to keep patience as there are large number of higher CRS candidates. I'm far at 353!

All the best to you guys!

Finally got an ITA!!! CRS at 466. Glad that I re-took IELTS to increase my score by 13 points with CLB 10 at all level. I still think the Express Entry system is unfair to PGWP holders who are international students coming to Canada to study and work afterwards. Without any foreign work experience, they (including myself) have 50 points deficits even if the language score is perfect. It is just wrong to group foreign workers and international students together in determining who should get permanent residency. Good luck to others and stay strong!!!

My score is 478 but still I did not get an ITA. Strange things is that when I log in to my CIC account, it say "No nomination at this time."
Started to feel worried. Is there anybody experiencing the same?

Thanks

Whats the surety that it will fall below 463 in next round? There may be new in-land applicants getting added to system plus PNP is also there, so I believe it may hover around this figure for a while or drop at max to around 450, and thats what I think will final cut-off for 2015.

Wow. I have a score of 414. Expected to get through in the first few draws. looks like next year is going to be more realistic. IMO once the election is over and the old FSW program has finished processing the backlog we'll see some movement.

Have been trying the Startup Visa as an option. Got some good interest in my company but the personal investment terms were a bit out of my reach. If anyone has a good business idea (especially tech) and a good amount of capital to invest in yourself explore that route. The business incubators I spoke to will get you a work permit within around 7 days if they take you on so you can move to Canada whilst your permanent resident visa is being processed.

In the meantime I have an offer of a contract in Bermuda so gonna wait out the Express Entry storm there. I firmly believe everyone who has a 400+ score is a good candidate and will get selected at some point. I think patience is going to be the key! Good luck everybody!

Cec 442 can increase to 456 but not interested anymore, luckily applied for pnp. I beleive score for this year will not go below 460.

I think it will go lower this year but not much. CIC committed to processing applications in less than 6 months so they are not going to take risks by inviting too many people on the new EE system in the first year. They are also now getting lots of applications via the Startup Visa which was being criticised for being a failure so they are going to ensure they process those successful applications with 6 months.

Do you mind me asking what PNP Province you have applied for?

CRS: 497
CEC stream, although the ITA letter states FSW.

Does it make any difference? (NOC 6221)
