How low can CRS go?

It is funny that people will want the scores to come down until their points are met and once it does, they just don't want it go down any further or even shoot up!

Their country, their policies, their wish. I believe they know their numbers better than most of the armchair analysts here.

I second this. Remember those days of mid 2016 when all the armchair analysts here made statements and borderline declarations like "the scores won't ever go below 430, 420" or whatever they mentally set as a cut off point? Yeah suddenly we don't see them much now.

Anyway, the scores might not stay high for long given quotas. And next year's quota might even be lower and not necessarily high. Nobody can tell with any certainty no matter what the armchair analysts want people to think.

This is uncalled for!!

Numbers simply cannot justify the value of a human being. Isn't the point of any immigration policy to let in as many qualified applicants as possible based on annual quotas?

In my opinion someone with a score of 480 is not always guaranteed to succeed in Canada when compared to someone with a score of 390 or any other number.

The problem is not in the score itself. The problem is with the huge amount of the invited applicants . If they want to stick to their quota they have only 2 options:
1. Drastically reduce or even stop for some time ITA
2. Do lot of rejections (at this rate we would be speaking about 50 to 60% of failed ITA).
The reason for the increase in EE ITAs is that the pre-EE paper based backlog is now mostly gone. Those applications filled up a significant percentage of the quota in 2015 and 2016. It makes no sense for IRCC to suddenly increase the EE intake out of the blue for no reason without being prepared for such an increase.

Edit: Also, every refusal needs strong legal justification. It would be impossible for IRCC to reject half of the applications they receive. They would be drowned in lawsuits and judicial reviews, not to mention a whole bunch of negative PR.

If score goes down below 400, I would be thinking just like that. Letting the whole world in :D In my opinion, anything above 400 is a good score.

Hehe.. its Canada, not US. What else do you expect? They look for quantity rather than quality. I even asked my maid, cook and janitor to apply.

Agreed. I've seen that way too often. Unfortunately, a lot of Indians seem to think this way as well.

Yes I feel the same. Anyway, scores above 400 means good education, experience and good english level. I dont see the problem.

Also, with the recent changes in Australia and New Zealand and the current political situation in the USA, Canada is the last beacon of hope for many skilled immigrants.

Please don't do what they did, Canada. ;D
