My question is more around timing of next 3 to 4 draws.... in order to setup an appointment for upfront medicals.
Is it reasonable to assume the following for the next draws (approximate time frame) ?

one in mid July
one in August first week
one in August 3rd or 4th week

Note: i assumed that since we had 3 in June then there will possibly be only one draw in July.
......

Draws appear to happen every other week. There were 5 Wednesday's in June and that's why there were three draws. There is no reason to believe draws will not continue on alternate weeks.

I was at 448 before, did SPOUSE IELTS and ECA to get bumped to 468.

Still nothing, now i am taking a lot of interest in Australian Immigration.

Canada should DUMP SUCH SYSTEM where someone who did Master's from their country, invested 70000 CAD on education and willing to settle there has to wait 3 year++.

No use of such system.

Why do you think of such a strange draw schedule?

just cant keep guessing any more....no one really knows what they are up to....how come 700+ people with excellent scores just keep on adding with each draw whats the source they must be with lima or PNP... a 481 score is for an masters graduate, unmarried, below 30 years with clb 10 all and 3+ years of work exp...which is a perfect kind of profile for a person never been to Canada ( other than doctors "non phd's" or person with bi-linguistic abilities) ..........and if they are not selected who the hell is getting..
Canadian work experience gives a huge points increase, 40 for just a single year. 482 is likely a middle aged graduate with 2 years of Canadian experience, two or more degrees and CLB9+ IELTS score. The following are examples of some possible combinations of the last few draws:

How do you come up with these scores? they are all incorrect. What are those CLB9x2, CLB10x2 ??

A single 35 years old, with Two or more degrees, maximum IELTS scores and 2 years Canadian work experience can only have 444 points.

A single 36 years old, with Master degree, maximum IELTS scores and 2 years Canadian work experience can only have 446 points.

I have given a complete breakdown per scoring area. It is evident that you are not familiar with the CRS criteria www.cic.gc.ca/english/express-entry/grid-crs.asp

IELTS scores are awarded on the basis of Canadian Language Benchmark (CLB) level per ability and there four abilities: reading, writing, speaking and listening. CLB9 scores 31 points per ability whilst CLB10 scores 33 (without a spouse).

Yes I should have mentioned that, my mistake. The point is that with foreign experience on its own, the maximum points is 481 but Canadian experience can boost this by up to 80 further points.
