My apologies in advance if this is a stupid question:

My CRS score currently stands at 445 and I just got ITA today. However, my birthday is Feb. 24, which I think means my score will drop to 440 (1 point lower than the minimum of last draw) two days later due to increased age. Is this going to be an issue? Or does it not matter once I have already got ITA?

Thanks.

Thank you very much! I think that perfectly applies to my situation. I was previously looking at cic.gc.ca/english/resources/tools/perm/express/invite.asp but did not find any direct mentioning of my issue there.

And also I appreciate everyone's help in this post
 
Do we need to explain this point (change in score because of birthday post-ITA) in Letter of Explanation?

Sorry for the stupid question. :p

No you need not explain if the points are changing due to your birthday. You can reconfirm it by reading your invitation letter that you would have received in your mail

Just wondering, is the ITA format change? Why there are a lot of people asking what should they do when their birthday after ITA which reduce their points under cut-off, recently? Previously, during my time the ITA clearly said that age points will be locked upon ITA.
 
so.. points are locked after ITA period.. the CRS score changes but .. it should be above cutoff while submitting AOR. so before you submit your application. its going recalculate again and let you know

Hey the invite still says that u don't lose points because of birthday .. however on the score preview sections the points do get reduced, hence the question if we should clarify the reduction in score due to birthday in a LOE
 
naaa... don bother... if lets you through.. don bother

score changes even if it goes below the lowest score of the draw due to birthday after ITA and before e-APR do not lead to rejection of application .. any other score change due to expired IELTS etc will lead to rejection
