Congrats I honestly believe it’s in the nick of time because in two weeks you may not be able to secure it anymore. I declined an ITA for BCPNP on poor advice and was not able to get it after so please try your best to secure that.

With the second wave of Covid19 especially in the US and India where a lot of applicants are from I doubt FSW draw will proceed soon. IRCC will never make exclusions among countries where applicants from due to "treat equally" but it would be logical to do so in my opinion. Applicants from countries where outbreak managed moderate to well are suffering because of the rest. With the current hike in India where probably more than half of the immigrants are from to Canada, FSW will not be happening soon. If I was a Canadian, I wouldn't want that as well until the end of this year.

Time and again, I have to keep saying these people that if one gets an ITA, there are months of document submission -> processing (more than 6 months on avg) -> COPR -> preparation to travel and finally travel. The process might take nearly 1 year.
Why these clowns act as if we get ITA and straight we ride a paramotor to Canada

6 months ago no one could have predicted the pandemic. We are in unprecedented times.

Hi Senior members ... My CRS score is sitting with Family 424 CEC inland and Single 458 ... Could any one of you suggest best option in this scenario ?.. Can I expect ITA in the next CEC draw ?..

COVID-19 update: IRCC resuming processing of online applications for visitor visas and eTAs, but travel restrictions remain

This could mean FWS draw might happen

Very good chance July 9th is an FSW draw. Everything is pointing to it. Airports and airlines opening up, more VACs opening and visitor visa processing starting. If an FSW is happening the CRS score is likely to remain at 470 for the rest of the year.

I believe, at 424, only if it's a CEC only draw in the one after next

Alberta is decreasing the number of invites.
The globe, overall, is having an increasing number of COVID-19 cases.
CA-US borders are closed until at least end of July.

On the other hand, CIC is restarting to process visitor visas. Perhaps due to immediate family members being allowed to enter the country.

It's really tough to guess what's gonna happen

Federal government extends travel ban at Canadian border

Hmm.. I just saw this though... it seems CEC draws will continue

I would say there is a very high chance 424 is reached if next draw is CEC considering pool size in between 421 and 430
