I got 600 points in a sudden this morning-PGWP holder

Be hopeful March end April draws will reach 400+ easily

You're better off jasonsmart, you might get picked up on 413 eventually and applying on an ITA awarded as a result of a computer error would have just caused more problems for you in the long run. Speaking of computer errors, I just received an email from CIC saying my account had been updated, and it has not been. There are clearly going to be a lot of teething problems with this new system. It should have been tested or run concurrently with previous Visa programs until it was functioning... as we wait for CIC to get their act together even people who may eventually become eligible to get their PR are loosing their jobs and being forced to leave the country as their visas expire. What a mess

I believe the score will definitely drop below 500, but once it goes below 500 , it would be a tough competition since there are lots of candidates with score between 400-500. And once the score goes below 500, it is no necessary that the score will go down with every draw

 

[arajat]

Forsure from all that I read most people are in range of 360 to 450 ' and that a pretty high score because we are not getting handed a free 600 points

The got points out it will hold draws without permanent job offers fingers crossed as to know when

 

[digitalnavneet]

Not to mention that candidates who are not residing in Canada will be in the same ranking pool as we are because Canadian experience is not giving us that many points. Some of the foreign candidates may even rank higher than us.

Your mistake is:


In the questions where they asked you about NOC code on current work permit you replied with NOC 2134. Now, since you are on a PGWP, your NOC code can not be written on your PGWP. Since you wrote the NOC code along with answering 'Yes' to the first 'do you have a valid job offer' question, the system by some error gave you the 600 points.

So you did answer wrong, unintentionally.

Many of us has answered the same way and we havent got any 600 points.. i dont know what is wrong in that....

 

[jsridhar]

Did you maybe register in the job bank? your employment got arranged and hence the 600 points?

Update:

600 are gone. It is just 413 now.
I'm very disappointed at this EE system now. CIC is just crewing us over and over.
They don't consider our feelings.
I'm so sad.

Guys, problem's solved. It was a system glitch!

I believe express entry profile system does not take into account PGWP holders, It is not clear how to respond the questionnaire if you have PGWP, every body has different answer

I have missed the second draw due the confusing questinaire.As am in NOC that doesn't require a LMIA,I was answering wrong the last question "was a positive LMIA issued for your ... ?" . Once I changed the answer,I've been given 600points.I am now 863points,NOC 7237,and I am hopeful.

 

[Auone]

Be veey careful. I too have an LMIA exempt job, NOC 4011. we cant write that a positive LMIA was issued for LMIA exempt jobs. Otherwise, you'll get in trouble once you get ITA

 

[JustAdi]

As long as the work permit is still valid,there should not be any problem in my case.Mine expires in Jun.Moreover,I have already applied for extension and,again,I was not asked a LMIA .
Probably,CIC should revise a little bit their questionaires.

Are you currently working on the mentioned LMIA?

 

[Auone]

No, my position is LMIA exempt. Postdocs dont need LMIA. My work permit has been extended once, is currently valid till october, and will be extended then aswell. BUT LMIA was never a requirement, although its still a closed work permit. Since no LMIA was issued, I think we shouldn't say yes to that question. It will be treated as misrepresentation. You are right CIC needs to revise its rules. The whole point of LMIA exemption for closed work permits like ours is that we will always be useful for labour market.
