Deadline to apply after ITA reduced to 60 days

Just an informational thread to people waiting for ITA in EE pool, IRCC has reduced the deadline to apply after ITA from 90 days to 60 days. So it's better to prepare well in advance. News link for reference..

That's unfortunate. Personally it took me slightly more than 70 days to finish getting all my documents ready due to factors beyond my control. i.e. delays by incompetent staff in getting my proof of finance/experience, not to mention all the times I've had to re-order something because of mistakes & incorrect data. About the only thing I was able to finish reasonably fast was the Medical exam.

Looks like new applicants will need to factor all this in before they even receive an ITA to meet the submission deadline.
