OMG that’s too much wait
If you see the link, this week's nominations come from DIP from Feb/26 to Mar/16.
Hopefully, nomination next week. I can save the application cost to Federal process, about C$600 if I got nominee before Apr/27.

Hello guys, I hope you can help me out.

I have an EE profile with 437 points under the CEC with one year of working experience, In July this year I will be completing 2 years of working experience, therefore, my points will go up to 462.

On March 3, I was lucky enough to register for OINP: International Student Stream. The reason why I did this its because the points in EE were really high and I lost hope, but recently I believe due to COVID19 the points have been dropping.

So currently I am in the EE pool and my application for OINP is processing, apparently it takes about 30-90 days to get a nomination, so I will be assumed that I should be nominated around June.

If I get the nomination before getting an ITA from IRCC,

1. Can I still get an ITA from IRCC even though I have a nomination?
2. Can I wait about a month to see if I get an ITA on my EE profile?
3. Can I cancel my nomination after it has been issued?

I don’t really want to do the paper-based process because it takes long time, but I will do it if I don’t get an ITA.

Thank you!

Here are my opinions.

1. Yes, they are separated.
2. Yes, you can do that. As I remember, nominee has six months to apply Federal CIC. You can wait about 6 months.
3. What is your current stage? As I know, it can't be refunded after assessment stage.

You can have both paths and decide before submitting Federal CIC.

Oh, I am sorry to hear that. Is there a possibility to go back to work in your previous company? This job offer stream asks applicants to keep employment with the same employer. If not, the applicant loses the nomination. For EE, you can increase EE points after resuming to work. As I know, it doesn't require continuous work, but total sum work experience. Hope you back to work soon.

Mine is
3/9- submit
3/17- assessment
no update after that
Same here. No change since DIP in Mar/17.

One applicant who submitted in Mar/7 got nomination today. Is process speed different between human captical and international student stream? Hope to see the good result this week.
