The draw was for CEC candidates only. Are you a CEC candidate?
Thank you for the reply. I am not. I just watched a video on how it is different from express entry. I got clarity.
But, do you have any suggestions for my with 447 score. Do I need to wait Till they open actual express entry or is there any alternate option. Thank you

When FSW draws restart, a score of 447 will be too low to be selected. You either need to increase your score or look at the PNP programs instead.

Hey guys,
Can someone explain to me how they chose who to give an ITA to? I have a friend who has 480 crs points when she created her EE profile last Feb. Its been 5 months and she is still not getting an ITA even though they have been drawing lower CRS scores.

I was under the impression that if your scores are over the cutoff, you AUTOMATICALLY get an ITA? Is this not right?

Does she have at least 1 year of Canadian work experience? There have been no recent draws for FSW applicants.

Yes - it's automatice if you are above the cut off.

Either there is something wrong with her profile and it's not valid.

Or she set up her profile later than she thinks and missed the last general draw which happened in early March.

Hi,

I guess she is in FSw streem. I had same confusion with my profile. But, right now Canada did not do draws for FSW since April. Just waiting for it to open

I will check with her if she is FSW. She's currently here in Canada and came here as a student so I thinkg she was CEC but I will confirm.

I was a bit concerned because I will be getting my points up to 480 this year when I complete my 1 year work exp for CEC, I was hoping to get an ITA upon submission of EE profile.

Thanks for replying!

If she is CEC, then something must be wrong with her profile and it wasn't properly set up. That's the only explanation.

Yeah thats probably it.

Last question and this is probably a stupid one. If you are under CEC, there shouldnt be any issues getting drawn during normal/FSW draws right?

No issues provided your score is high enough (and provided your profile is set up properly).
