" CIC got rid of application back log of 2015 and before by the end of 2016. They also enhanced their capacity to process large # of applications. They now have well trained people working on applications. This is the reason we have been having draws with such large # of invites in 2017. But it seems by the end of April 2017, they have enough applications to work on and from now on there will be draws with smaller # of invites which in turn would see CRS starting to creep up. From the looks of it,it seems CRS will touch high 450s again some point this year."
