Then I think you are right about the quota allocation. In Nov 2019, most of them got Nominations within 3 weeks. Some even got in 7 days.
We just can wait now and hope for the best.
I’ve had a quick look at forums for Ontario, Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Nova Scotia by search tool ... didn’t come across anyone with application/FN in 2020 who’ve heard as yet. I don’t have immigration tracker but does anyone else?
There’s nothing about allocation on IRCC twitter account, except to announce that the Immigration Minister Hon. Marco Mendicino gave a speech on Feb 28th.

This says that “he will formally table Canada’s 2020-2022 Immigration Levels Plan in March”.

I scanned ahead and didn’t watch the whole thing but around 14 min he says will looks forward to announcing the 2020-2022 plan “in the coming weeks”.
Perhaps nothing will happen until then? But at least they should have our applications ready to approve ! I imagine the allocations have been under negotiation with the provinces/territories, though have now been agreed in private.
The allocations are likely to be announced in a speech to the House of Commons. The House is next sitting on March 9-13, and then 23-27 and 30-31. I can’t find a future timetable that indicates when the Immigration Minister is scheduled to speak (and tbh ... it’s getting quite late I need to go to bed!).
Hope that helps some people!
