complete silence from OINP. wow looks like this face during May where they had stopped working for a few months
 
Guys- I have two questions here :

1. Currently my job NOC is 2171. What will happen if I accept a new job offer that has a different NOC code? (Both jobs related to IT, but different roles and responsibilities)
2. I want to travel to Canada to meet my gf, and my file is in the decision phase since mid-May. If I choose to travel anytime in near future, will it affect my application?

Cheers!
Rohit

1) No impact if you have at least one year experience in the past 5 years/10 years for OINP/IRCC respectively in your primary NOC.

2) No, it won't affect your application.
 
Thanks Raj -

Btw my IELTS scores getting expired on Feb 2017. My file is in decision phase since mid-May. Now - do I give another IELTS to be on safer side? Or you guys reckon this OOPNP will drag on and on into next year.

Guys! A 24th October FSW applicant just got nominated! Wow! Reported via WhatsApp!
HALILUYA!
 
Today's draw:

Invitations: 1288
cut off points: 483

I think next draw will invite around 1500 people .. So from now we should see nominations coming...
 
I would request all October and November applicants to check their myCIC account. Nominations sometimes reflect after the draw is declared and before the 24 hr period ends.

Best of luck to all November applicants.
 
We badly need a surge of nominations...only few nominations won't do now. Come on OINP you can do it :).

Yes. While I am honestly happy for the people who are getting nomination, everyone would like to see a bulk nomination. Keeping applicants waiting for months without transparency (no timeline) is very unprofessional on the part of OINP.

That was the first thing I did when the October applicant reported nomination. Unfortunately, no nomination. Not yet.
 
I just want to clear 1 thing on IELTS:

My IELTS will be expired on 15th Oct, 2016. I got my nomination on 15th sept, 2016. They called me a day ago and asked updated IELTS.
It wasn't expired at that time. But, fortunately, I already gave exam 2-3 months earlier.

And anyways you'll need that new IELTS in EE profile as well. So, better to give as early as possible.
