How many draws left by the end of this year?

You know you're English when you use the word trousers

Also, trousers are gender neutral : I'm not a fan of the saying

Valid point... Ok...erm... I wear the rather dirty socks and apparently will do for another day T-shirt?

 

[mukulabd]

Ok... Here goes... It's ball time...

16th Nov 468 2020
30th Nov 461 1980
14th Dec 453 2200
(28th Dec 448 2300)

Those numbers look very ambitious. I think it will take the rest of the year to clear all the 460s, though I wish I am wrong..

 

[mukulabd]

And I think they must have added lot more workforce to process all these invited applications. I mean their ITAs kind of tripled since last few draws... 700s to 2000s...good for us

Remember how everyone thought there were 3000+ between 484 and 481... there was only 1800 between 484 and 475 after 6 months... there's definitely hope!

Just say that your qualifications are far more superior from that of your partner. 8)

I see reference to reducing points from PNP under #2. There has been no evidence of that so far. Hmmmm?

It would be political suicide if they reduce points for PNP, not even considering the bad press they're gonna get from the media. The provinces need to be kept happy always. I don't think it's a serious consideration at all.
