Really hard to guess without any new data but I say a 3point drop per draw is real to expect if number of ITA stays 2000+. And it should (no reason to reduce them)..

So 465 would be the next cutoff. And the most important thing is consistency, I would rather let them build a trend, not just a breach into the 450's here and there. Slow but steady wins the race;)

Well its all about a wild guess. CIC is pretty unpredictable.
I think there may be 700 to 800 people at each point between 465 to 467 and there will be roughly 600 PNP's coming up as well.

For sure. There might be 3000+. We are going into ranges that are not touched since spring 2016. Wow, a long wait.

3k! plus how now? That is about 5% of the entire pool!!!!!!

Whats your opinion in this regard Castillo?
About 1500 between 465 to 467? and than PNP and LMIA?

So what? This is possible. Think, for 8 months there wasnt a draw made below 468.

@Msq123 yes that is reasonable.

I hope that ITA's remains on a higher side. As potential PNP's and LMIA holder's will also be adding on uptill next draw !

Yes dear I know....12 months is a reasonable processing time.....it was longer before.
My question is...can I apply for sponsoring my wife,just after having a pr?
Or I should have a Canadian job to do so?


With the higher points of course you have better chance to get ITA, once that's done and you get PR, then you can look into getting your wife over. It is quicker this way in the long run, rather than waiting for the lucky draw for 450, and then wait for PR to be processed.

Don't worry from now about if u need work or not, and how to get your wife. One step at a time, the hardest part is to get PR, after that it is easy peasy. There is always a way after that, depending on your country of origin and age of course, IEC, Visitor visa, study permit, and eventually of course the Family sponsored PR, which CIC promised to process even quicker in the future.

So don't think, DO IT.

Good luck.

I think I saw you would have to have a job yes but investigate it further!

Do you know some cec and Canadian grad were there before and have moved up and thus cleared. I reckon about 350/400 at each level.At this rate of ITA issuance, I think next drawn ould be around 464+/- 1 depending on the number of pnp issued. New entrants are not likely much given the fact the latest ielts was done on 7th January and results won't be out before next draw ( provided it is held on 18 th Jan) People gaining points due to work exp and less improved scores while odas losing due to age, that should even out. As for lmia, there effect has been reduced in EE for now.

So next draw, my take : 464 +/- 1. Is strongly think 465 with ita of 2.5k plus
 
My wish is for the cut -off to be 450 with lots of ITAs for everyone! Either that or way above 500 because all of us will get PNP nomination ;D

You should do research on family sponsorship - as per new changes it takes up to 12 months to sponsor a family member.

If not less than 12 months. You can endure frigid Canada alone for 12 months now!!!! ;D ;D ;D
 
I going to venture to say 2700 ITAs, cutoff at 463. Either way, I think the next few months might get pretty interesting!
 
I think with 2900 ita already gone this month nxt draw wud be 2500 with crs 465+-1. Reasons: assuming cic wants to take 5k people every month. ( Internet sites, forums, etc say plan was to take 4k every month)
