Yes, I had my ECA done by WES, duplicate ordered on November 2 and sent on November 3 according to the WES website.

What's your theory?
Interesting.

It had passed my mind that WES double checking could be faster than IQAS double checking, since one depends on the candidate while the other is out of the candidate's reach (you don't order an IQAS duplicate, OINP verifies those by themselves).

But seeing cases go to Assessment in 11 to 24 days (your case, the slowest so far) just makes me conclude the obvious - IT'S ALL RANDOM :/

Yes there is a lot of randomness here. And there are still a few people who submitted on the 2nd and 3rd who have not moved into Assessment, so my record will be broken soon.

Btw are you in the OINP NOV APPLICANTS whatsapp group? We have a pretty good tracker going there (in addition to the myimmitracker)

Nice, great to know. I'll PM you my whatsapp number so you or the group admin can add me. Thanks!

How does OINP ask for additional docs. Do they send an email or do we get a message in our account ?

In case of email, should we be checking our junk folders regularly ?

Where are the french speaking applicants?? Guys you need to be more visible on the forums...
That´s the issue. There are very little. The fact that french-speaking is the only stream that has never closed in over two years of OINP proves that further.

Most francophones tend to choose Québec over the rest of Canada, and many who manage to have bilingual skills can now reach a 30 point bonus (since early june), and a CLB 9 + CLB 7 combo can easily make them reach cutoff scores (I myself could reach over 460 after my new ECA is ready if I could have a NCLC 7 TEF today, and I am 37!), unless they struggle with education or age.
