Which province sent the nomination today.?

OINP sent out crazy number of nominations on a saturday.. believe it or not.
when i say crazy, i mean crazy for a saturday... have no idea how many exactly (obviously) but on the forum the numbers are between 15-20

Do you have any idea on what basis did they send nominations?what were the criteria for their selections

Oh! How do you think does that affect the cut off points in the next few draws? My pgwp is expiring in a few months and I'm sitting on 465. Do I have any chance by December?

Ontario may issued around 600 PNPs on last Saturday (this figure is my guess only) + Let us assume an additional 500 as contribution from other provinces & LMIA

That makes total 1100 applicants above 600+ crs score.

If there is draw on next Wednesday with 2000 ITAs,

2000 -1100= 900

This 900 ITAs may decrease the cutoff score by max 9 points to 466+

With increasing number of immigrant targets and getting rid off pre EE backlog I think we will see more 2000-2500 draws in 2017.

I think if there is a draw of about 2000 the score will slip to 460 and if the trend of 2000 or more ITAs continue for about 4-5 draws we can see score slip to 450 or less

With my understanding when they launched EE they said that it is 50% of total immigrant target and from 2017 it will work 100% because all of the applicants will be selected from EE. So if they were giving away 1500 invites every 2 weeks saying it as 50% they should easily can give 3000 ITAs per draw from 2017 onwards. If even if they send 2000-2500 ITAs consistently we can see the scores drop below 450

Yes, within 4-5 draws the cutoff score will breaks the 450 level.

seems legit (Y)

Although we may still be wrong, it does seem very promising. I'm looking forward to retaking my language test in December and bumping my score from 440 to 461.

I lost 6 points for IELTS. Don't wish to retake the exam just for those 6 points. Good thing is that i wont be losing any points until next September. So patiently waiting at 459.

Oh if I screw up this next one (last one was almost 2 years ago) I'm just going to keep retaking it. In a position now to afford the £155 each time if I have to. Not ideal though...

Thank you very much.

I'm nativeEnglish, but in the listening I had a mild panic attack and just stopped listening... so 7.5
Reading was 8 (not sure what I missed there)
Writing was 8 (bad speller)
Speaking g was 9.

I just need my listening to go up to an 8 and I go to 461 points.
