WHAT IS YOUR SOURCE OF INFORMATION...
I do not believe you....
They just started the special NOC (IT sector) list a week ago...
You will see by this friday, many under 400 will get NOI...
I will be more than happy if anyone below 400 gets NOI as I was the one of the first person to voice in their favor, as I consider them equally talented and deserving.
From many weeks I have been informing in this forum that ICT quota is highest amongst all because Ontario need them but they somehow was able to fill it only by 40% while others have already exceeded by 90-100%.
Therefore, they have sent many NOI's last week below 400 to ICT candidates and have met targets. The recent Update from OINP releasing NOC codes was related to already issued NOI's as there were many candidates writing them emails to ask if they are eligible. This means anyone from these NOC will be exempt from 400 points rules during application.
Nevertheless, it doesn't indicate if they will continue to send NOI's in the coming weeks. If they want to send NOI's then they usually use wording like "we will send NOI's unless quota is filled or throughout this month" but in this case they used wording "for the week of June 26th will be targeting".
Finally, they have lowered score limit for these NOC's and may issue NOI in the future but exact timing cannot be confirmed.

There is a lot of data available on open government website of Canada. You can download speadsheets, take a look at OINP Targets, and then make your own calculations.
We all give our input which may not be true always yet it is a small contribution that may give a right direction to some applicants.
Good luck!
