Ray of Hope - 139th Draw

[callisto]

Have they done PNP only invites before?

Dude, read above messages. I told clearly that I received ITA. There is no reason for me to fake and waste all your time and what benefit do I get by that. My only intention of posting the message was that everyone can be aware of the draw that happened (though I don't know if it was only intended for PNP or not).

I believe you. Thanks for giving the information that ITAs were issued. fingers cross for folks like us without a PNP.

Yes, 30 May 2018 was the last PNP only draw.
It looks like they used to do PNP only and trade draws on the same day, so there are a few examples of this. 30 November 2016 was PNP only with no trade draw on the same day.

I belong to a group in fb and there also someone announced his ITA though he didnot disclose his score

Could you tell me what is the name of that group? I would like to join too thanks

Thanks, I hope you get it.

additional information - Ontario PNP and got 600 points last week. 467+600 = 1067, had birthday last week and score ended up with 1062. Got email and checked messages in account.

Not oo experience at it but haven;t see that isn't 1.5 years since i showed interest in getting a PR.

 

[MatAb]

Yeah only got my 600 this week..so potentially next week. Good stuff dude.

I know the pain. Missed ITA in October because of WES delay by 2 days. Since then, been a horrible wait for me. Wish you all good luck.

Yeah i suspected and looks like the draw was only for PNP candidates only. This is both promising and scary at the same time. promising because they have not shut down completely. Scary because maybe they'll go the PNP route which means a high degree of limitation on candidates invited. I my self have 484 and I am worried on if i'll get any invite for this week, next week or April 01st. Guess will know soon.

My optimism is hoping they split it up because of the lack of people maybe, to do the draw in the offices? PNP only today/this week, everyone else down the line? But who knows! Just trying to stay positive!

It was an ingenious move to apply for a nomination when you got NOI from Ontario. Instead of thinking about potentially wasting 1500 CAD for OINP, you went ahead and grabbed the opportunity with both hands. People should leverage NOI from provinces even if they have a point short of the previous draw's cut-off score. No point in waiting and getting butchered in subsequent draws. With 467, you had no chance in the last few months and it is still bleak for 467 in the upcoming draws. Great job!

Yeah. Sad thing is that I had the invite on Feb 04th but I had to decline last week as my Work history in EE profile was a mess (didn't read enough while creating the profile). Had every document with me except getting the work ex letters to align with the crappy way i declared my work ex. So, went the cancellation and reapply route so i can correct my profile rather than going the LOE way. Now it has come back to bite me in the ass. i have 484 and now i am not sure what to expect next.

Most certainly a plausible theory. I see no rationale for inviting PNP and not the other guys. Maybe its PNP today and others tomorrow due to resource constraints.

With 484, you will get within end of this month 100%. This particular draw has been strange, but if they ignore people with scores such as yours, immigration itself would end (which is not Canada's intention)
