If it's a CEC draw, it will likely drop. It's hard to say. It can go either way. If it's going to be a general draw, expect the cut-off to be around 475ish.
I guess we will have to wait until this Wednesday to find it out.
Hello guys
Need a little clarification. I am working for BELL as a technician where we are not assigned any fixed hours weekly. I completed my 1560 hours in 13 months. Will I be eligible for Express entry. As per CIC I need to work atleast 30 hours per week and my average hours are 27.50 per week.

This is how you should be calculating your work experience if you are working less than 30 hrs a week. You take the number of hours you work every week and divide it by 30. Keep adding those values until you reach 52. That's when you qualify for Express Entry. You said 13 months, so I am assuming you worked for 56 weeks, so by dividing your average hours (27.50) by 30, we get 0.916 for each week. Dividing 52 by .916 gives us 56.76. In other words, you need to work at least 57 weeks to reach one-year work experience if you work 27.50 hrs a week. Part-time work experience is counted as long as it is NOC 0, A, or B. It just takes longer to get there. Note: IRCC does not count more than 30 hrs a week, so working long weeks will not make up for short work weeks.

Exactly. The 1500 goes to Ontario and the PR fees including the Proof of funds is mandatory
OINP just conducted a FST draw
Scores between 400 and 436
After a loooooong time, FST happened
Dudes here who keep claiming that Canada cannot invite outsiders due to Corona and if it does, there are chances that people coming from outside will infect Canadians. Now, I wanna hear from those dudes
Obviously not all FST dudes will be in Canada and same is the case with CEC as well
I strongly believe that the day Canada and US opens up their borders, that's when all draws are set to resume
As I'm into IT, I heard that IT, Multimedia and other tech industries have not been hit badly and now they are all booming badly
Worst hit is Aviation, Tourism, Hospitality, Film and other similar industries (for which govt well-compensated) and dudes who have been fired (temporarily) are all being hired to some extent
So, I can say that All Draws will resume before or by August and definitely not later than that
Plus no IELTS equates to no dudes coming up or very less dudes getting into the pool
Also, I heard that WES and CES have received tooooooo many transcripts during this time and due to lack of space in their office reception, they have used some temp storage to keep those files. So when WES and CES staff come to work (September or October), that's when they can start sorting and to process those files
All in all FSW draw might resume by Aug and if it does, as CEC did, FSW scores too will definitely drop undoubtedly.

Ontario EE skilled trades program is different from FST draw. It requires one year work experience in Ontario.
Also the draw happened yesterday.
FST requirement: https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/immigrate-canada/express-entry/eligibility/skilled-trades.html#minimum
ONIP skilled trade program: https://www.ontario.ca/page/ontarios-express-entry-skilled-trades-stream

Yeah but many started to get today. Some of them gained this experience and came back to home nations. So not all the dudes that got invite are in Canada but all their applications will be processed in the same manner
That's my point
That makes sense but I think the applicants need to be in Ontario at the time they apply. If you click on the second link and check the mandatory requirements 3, they have to be living in Ontario and hold a valid work permit at the time they apply
The same applies for the CEC draws. There are some applicants who have returned to their home country but still qualify for ITAs. So really nothing has changed. IRCC, I suppose, is trying to make the best of the situation - that the vast majority who are selected are already in the country and for the few that aren't, there's nothing they can do about it.
