With your prediction I can't cross my fingers :p There is no target for the issuance of ITA, but for the PR landings. In my opinion, there would be draws like this:
Sep: 2 draws for sure (1 can come as a surprise); = 6500 ITAS (3500)
Oct: 3 draws; = 11000 ITAs
Nov: 2 draws (+1 surprise); = 7300 ITAs (3700)
Dec: 3 draws (last one for Christmas or for New year)= 12000 ITAs

And there would be, probably, around 44.000 ITAs, so relax everybody and get smth to drink and think about it, if you can't imagine so, that is not my fault :D As you may see, I'm big dreamer and predict based on pure HOPE along with alive positivism ;):)

PS: Doing a good job and achieving the desired end result should be our primary motivation.
Always stay positive and hopeful! If you can't do that, so this ROH is not the place you want to be! PEACE :cool:
butt buttt butttt... am just being cold showered on my way to this thread page 20 :confused:

We are all dreamers buddy. Let's all dream together and keeps our hope alive.:):)

My husband laid out a stack of file folders on his desk, with tabs for each one showing. I know I went through that stack at least twice. God knows how many times he looked through them. But somehow, it was behind one of the folders and so lined up that we missed it multiple times.

First, thank God I didn't do it :) I think we feel even happier than when the study permit arrived Tuesday night!

The originals are now in a fireproof box, lol.
All the best :) Hope things are safer now :p

Hmmmm... let me think wisely... maybe I have just joint the EE pool? Nah, that's too obvious....




You're always welcome!



Quotas do exists, but they change as the global situation changes. A year ago no one was foreseeing illegal immigrants from the US coming to Canada, or Middle East refugees. Moreover, even if quotas are set, what about CRS? You really believe that H1B expats won't affect future cut-off scores?



I've been reading that some people have been waiting for 2 years with scores below 400. That's plain... irrational. I am definitely not going to wait that long. And I did not suggest people should go somewhere else, I suggested they should keep other options open. Lunacy is speaking through you, I am staying rational.



Me too, to!

You don't belong here buddy. This is Ray Of Hope and your attitude seems you don't have any.

Being married for some time, and having experience of looking for lost things ,i can say confidently that its much more difficult than it appears. :).
Though I am yet to be married , I assent to your opinion :)
I had experienced this through my mom :D, Girls/ladies have extra sense or pair of eyes when they are look out for lost things :)

Yes PF is valid if it can be cashed out easily enough. If you can't access it until retirement or something like that then it doesn't work as far as I know

And it works for oinp and fsw
Thanks for the info. Gavin,
In India PF can be en-cashed as soon as one leaves the job. The Good thing which you told is that OINP also recognizes as a Valid POF

So based on this information, we are reaching the cap for this year in term of ITAs?

ITAs issued in 2017
63,777

2017 Target
71,700

Remaining ITAs ~ 7k.

So we have around 2-3 more draws for this year? This is scary since the CRS will not going down.

Hi I don't think CIC has just 7K left. 7K is just for FSW.if you look at the second link you put up, they also have PNP target as 51K.Remember ITAs issued are FSW and PNP(inclusive) candidates;So calculate 51K plus 7K.However remember to calcuate ITAs that have been issued when they had for PNP draws only; although they have been few.Correct me if I am wrong.
They have more than enough draws to make in 2017.lets HOPE it comes through for us all.

Hi All, just a doubt... suppose if the one gets ITA in the next draw say 30th of August, when will he need to submit POF and Medicals ? I mean from ITA to submission of Medicals and POF, how much time one will have ?

BE LIKE A POSTAGE STAMP. STICK TO IT UNTIL YOU GET THERE. (Bob Proctor)
We all should keep our hopes high and believe in the power of our thoughts.
Thoughts become Things. (Bob Proctor)
The only thought / image which should be in our mind should be of "Holding our Passports High with the Canadian PR Visa Stamped into it"
If we can see it in our mind, we can hold it in our hands.
We all will get the ITA and the subsequent PR Visa..........this is my firm belief.

thank you, and one more doubt.. my spouse is not accompanying me to Canada but I need to submit her medicals as well in case I get an ITA in future. But he has undergone medicals for another purpose a week back. Will these medicals are valid/accepted if I submit them post ITA ?
