When did the clock start though? lol
i wanna know when was the 0th minute and when would be the 24th hour?


Determination — number of invitations

1. (1) For the purposes of paragraph 10.2(1)(b) of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act, the number of invitations that may be issued during the period beginning on April 12, 2017, and ending on April 13, 2017, is 3,923.

Required rank

(2) Foreign nationals who, on April 12, 2017, at 17:24:01 UTC, have been assigned a total of 423 points or more under the Comprehensive Ranking System that is set out in the Ministerial Instructions Respecting the Express Entry System, as published in the Canada Gazette, Part I, on December 1, 2014, and as amended from time to time, occupy the rank required to be invited to make an application for permanent residence.



The underlined statement tells you when the draw was initiated.... Your "0th minute", if you like.

Hope that answers your question.

Based on the available data of CRS score distribution of candidates in the Express Entry pool, I have come up with some predictions for the 59th draw.

If it happens on April 12 - CRS 423 with 3783 ITA's.
If it happens on April 19 - CRS 428 with 3709 ITA's.
If it happens on April 26 - CRS 435 with 3788 ITA's.

The variance in the above calculation is +/- 1 CRS.

Remember this prediction which I made 5 days back! I was spot on with the CRS cut off of 423! ITA count is 140 more than my prediction! Congrats guys
 
Congratulations to everyone who made the cut off!! :)
