There is a logic to assume they will start giving nominations
Firstly OINP has not been able to maintain or manage their schedule since last 10 months. OINP says they expect 2017 quota in November. Even they get the new Quota assuming IRCC does things on time,( it may take more time) OINP will not work in December and January, so they will not be able to send PT NOI for 2017 before March 2017.
Now if they finish up with their AOR by say 15th Sep, as explained above, what are they going to do after that date? They have no choice than to give nominations to all of us, which in any means they will do because they will come up with new online process and they would not like processing paper based applications and online processing go simultaneously. This would even make their position worse in 2017. Above this OINP knows the IELTS and passport problems and many other problems which will arise so they will want to wind up the process of 2016 before Christmas.
So we all can expect our nomination by the end of year and said they can start giving regular nominations by 15th Sep.
1 Why don't they work in December and January ? All normal people do world wide.
2 Does CIC work during December and January?
3 I saw some persons got PT on Dec 25 2015. What does this mean? That they or few persons work in Dec? Or the entire PT process is automated?
