Congrats everyone!

...now, is anyone else curious if they're hiring more agents to process all of these applications?

I think he needs to think about that bec application is not submitted. If he submits his appplication before score changes then its good.
Just went on website and got this info -

Exemption to section A11.2: candidates whose birthday occurs after they receive an ITA
An applicant may have a birthday after they receive an ITA but before they submit their e-APR. Their change in age may lower their CRS score below the lowest score in the round of invitations. It may also result in the applicant no longer meeting the minimum requirements of the FSWC and, consequently, no longer meeting the MEC, resulting in a refusal based on section A11.2.
When a change in age results in the candidate no longer meeting the MEC or having their recalculated CRS points score fall below the lowest points score in that round of invitations, officers should consider applying the public policy to exempt applicants for permanent residence from certain age-based requirements between invitation to apply and application, based on section A25.2. This consideration can result in an exemption from the refusal of an application under section A11.2.
This public policy also grants an exemption to applicants who may be refused for failing to meet FSWC program requirements when their birthday occurs between the ITA and e-APR.

yes you are GOOD, your profile information is a pretty much frozen now, like your birthdate , expiry date for EE and such

Incorrect. Once an applicant receives an ITA there is an exemption for score changes that might occur between receiving ITA and submitting the e-APR due to birthdays.

As long as he receives an ITA - any changes of score that occur due to birthdays are exempted.

Oh my God! This is simply amazing, 2 draws in consecutive weeks. Has this happened before? So, when should we expect the next draw practically speaking?
Also, any chance for me in the next draw?
Fingers crossed @ 456.

Maybe they don't need to hire more people as they started to work more efficiently. 8)

Hey everyone,

Does anyone know if all the document have to be scanned and sent, or are they gonna ask the original?

I have some documents that are abroad and I have all their scan but since I live in a country where nothing arrives by the post I'm afraid to have them sent here

How long before it becomes worrisome for the ITA to drop?

I have taken the CAT in my time. More than 150K applicants. Results come instantaneously though!!

Looking at last year's trend and the dates of draws, here is my prediction for the next draw:


Draw Date 2016 Draw date 2017 Day Score (2017)

January 6th 2016 January 4th 2017 Wednesday 468

January 13th 2016 January 11th 2017 Wednesday 459

January 27th 2016 January 25th 2017 Wednesday 450-455

Doubtful. It was only a few months ago they managed to break the website, remember? ;D

Thank you all guys for the kindly help. So I am qualified for this ita FOR SURE? I can prepare documents within 90 days like other applicants? :-\ :-\

Is there any CIC statement for such birthday exemption?
