I do believe in the first 3 months of 2017 the cutoff will go down to 440. Don't forget the number of ita's that will count towards 2017 quota are from June 2016 to June 2017

I'm not so sure about the 440 cut off. Economic stream's quota for this year is still lower than 2015's (172,500 vs. 181,300), so if they still keep the ITAs per draw around 1,500 like 2015. I don't see the score will go down 450.

No to mention that we are going to have more bonus points for CEC stream, french speaking and people with Canadian siblings. Let's wait for the Year End report and what changes are going to happen next few weeks.

Yay more points for CEC... Only 2 years too late as my eligibility expires in Dec!!!

>:(
 
This looks like some good news and the points should go down considerably before even year end.

Total invitaions since June 1, 2016 = 10,903
Target for 20176 (ITAs till June 2017) = 73,700 (Only Federal Economic Class)
Remaining ITAs for 7 months = 62797
ITAs per month = 8,971

Suppose they continue with 2 draws a month, ITAs per draw = 4485 and thats a huge number!!!

Even if they take 3500 ITAs per draw, the score should drop below 450 easily.

I like your numbers, but can I ask where you got 10,000 so far from? Just curious

Buddy wrong calculations, you are looking at the global economic, you have to look at the federal workers, it is both higher than 2015 and 2016.

ITAs != quota/targets. Only PR approved applications are counted toward the quota.

Thats even better! But even if we count all ITAs are apporved, its still a huge number and will easily drop the scores below 450 before year end. I guess the Nov 2 draw will clear things up.

That's wrong, divide by 3 to get ita's, just an approximation. Target is not equal to ita's.
 
Don't forget spouses and dependents that are included as a part of an application that could be issued on a single invitation.

How is that better? we have no idea how many applications have been approved? remember there are literally hundreds of thousands of backlog applications pre-EE.

There is virtually no chance for a ~4,000 ITA draw.

It just looks like we went back to the 2015 numbers. But the reduction in backlogs would mean more draws from express entry; which is good!

Yes, that will be totally true, But Where you saw that number (backlogs) ? Does it got reduce ?
 
target set to 300k nothing changed from 2016

Backlog is reduced, ita's were slow is July August September of 2016 and federal skilled targets are increased by 15000. I don't see how cutoff will not go down considerably.
