Yea . Will continue
Please don't continue the French :D:p;)

I guess this French stuff is driving the CRS inflation.
People think that their score is not high enough because the CRS is too high after the COVID pause and worry about the new targeted draw, then they start to learn french.
A lot of people start to learn french, and more people in the pool with high CRS points, and the CRS cutoff will stay high.
Then, since people think that their CRS is not high enough to get selected, they start to learn french.
It is a vicious cycle..

Probably equilibrium CRS will be above 481 and the only way for FSW applicants to get selected is to learn French.
It seems that we are still in CRS cutoffs 496 and 494, but there are only 2 CRS points dropped in one draw..

If everyone stops learning French, the CRS cutoff score will go down..

Exactly. I always tell people to stop getting in the EE pool, CRS will automatically come down as number of profiles decrease. It will only help them.

You don't need proof of address if you do a walk-in. I hard landed but had no permanent address, so I did a walk-in.
Got it. My bad, I should I have checked in detail. I won't need a POA if I am applying in person. Thanks, bud.

Wow.. I have never thought about this! This is a really great idea actually! If everyone stops getting into the EE pool, then the Immigration minister will think of a way to meet their huge immigration target. Probably we can see a similar program like TR to PR pathway but open up for outland applicants as well. It will be on a first come first serve basis without any french! The targeted NOC draw will not be implemented as well next year since there is not enough demand even without it. The backlog will also decrease and the processing time for FSW will go back to 6 months or less. It solves a whole lot of issues!

Bank statement.

Tell them to send your first statement as a hard copy to your mail address.
Thanks. Since, I am going in-person, Proof of Address is not required. Its only required if you are applying by online.

Same question but about PR card? What would be your strategy if you don't have any address?
I already "soft" landed. So now my plan is to give my friend's address after I move permanently. I don't think I can get an address at least for a month or two or more after moving to Canada given how crazy rental market is. I will given my friend's address for everything including bank.

Ok thanks for your answer ! We have a few relatives in Quebec. Do you think it could be a problem if we assure ircc that we don't want to establish there?

Heard many different way of thinking about it...

You can give any address where you can collect the mail.

When you give a friend's or relative's address, you're essentially claiming that you're living there. You cannot settle in Quebec as FSW. So, no, you shouldn't be giving a Quebec address.
