Ray of Hope 66th Draw

[qgon123]

This one,
http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/helpcentre/answer.asp?qnum=1318&top=29
See the last two lines of the table, the ones with status still in pool

"The highest ranked candidates are invited during rounds of invitations. If we issue 3,500 invitations during a round, the system will pick the top 3,500 candidates at that time."

I think 423 is written by mistake, but it is very hard to swallow that CIC could make that type of mistake.

Hello friends,
I want to ask you all that I am very much confused to choose my noc code.
I am self-employed in IT (Web marketing). According to my profession my noc code is 0124 'Advertising, marketing and public relations managers'.
As they have mentioned the duties, Employment requirements and Additional information as below every noc code.
Is it necessary to meet all the criteria in Employment requirements ???

From what I know it is not necessary to meet the employment requirements, that is just a benchmark for what the industry look for so if that is your job you may want to have it as it will make getting a job in that area easier. The NOC requirements are what is important.

Does the CRS tie rule mean someone 4 pts above the threshold might not get an ITA ? in this all people with a lower score than this person would not get ITA either eventhough above the threshold !
Or is this tie thing only about people falling right at the cutoff score ?

So, are we in for today's (it already Wednesday in my time zone) refresh party or waiting for next week?

My refresh party starts as soon as I wake up every Wednesday, Thursday and Friday even if no one (including me) is expecting a draw that week

Considering this as 'not an error' (which is kinda illogical) but the update is still there and is not corrected, doesn't it make the pool more like first come first serve thing again. It will be good for people like me but that doesn't make sense (IF this update is correct).

Disheartening (if the update is correct and not a typo) for those of us who recreated their profiles recently

 

[Wandering Mind]

Job Bank registration used to be mandatory, if you had no Job Offer or didn't fall under CEC. After June 6th, it has become optional.

CIC's policies seem to contravene and interrupt with Ontario's PNP. Ontario requires that you recreate your profile in order to receive their NOI, but who would want to do that now? None!!

CIC shall soon hit Ontario's PNP badly in a few weeks again, by conducting a draw with CRS cut-off under 400. This will render OINP obsolete and redundant.

You've made some really valid points!

 

[Wandering Mind]

I think my profile is the oldest one... i made it on 28 sept 2015...So my chances are absolutely bright

But didn't it expire in September 2016? You would've made a new one in 2016, no?

 

[Wandering Mind]

That's odd because Ontario requires you to create a new profile and Express Entry prefers older profiles. Hope the next draw doesn't stand exactly at my CRS score.

Yes, there seems to be some communication gap between Ontario and IRCC

Even though it is highly unlikely for the draw to occur this week due to the June 6 changes, still I have come up with the prediction for the 66th draw.

If it happens on:
Jun 7 - CRS 409 - ITAs 3800
Jun 8 - CRS 410 - ITAs 3800
Jun 9 - CRS 411 - ITAs 3800

The variance in the above calculation is +/- 1 CRS.
Calculation accounts factor for June 6 changes.

Amen !

I, sort of, like the new EE profile page with our EE Number and Full Name displayed conspicuously at the top. Boosts confidence, and yes, it seems their system updates are complete. Expect a draw anytime, roll up your sleeves and begin the F5 ceremony!!

I think 423 is written by mistake, but it is very hard to swallow that CIC could make that type of mistake.

Well, CIC is not infallible, and there is a human sitting on a desk who types all the information present on their website. Humans make mistakes, and that is a typo. Expect a correction soon, as this must have been reported already. The gist of the information must be comprehended there!!
