guys, lets see the actual approximate calculations related with the draws and subsequent flushing out- lets assume one is having 435 crs and lets calculate how long will he need to reach this cutoff as many of us are currently in this landmark-


currently, 3800 profile above 435 and below 441 +1200 above 440= 5000- left

3000 new entrants approx every 2 weeks above 435.

-3500 itas given every 2 weeks

left after next draw after 2 weeks= 4500 (D1)

so, considering this as a standard, we can find out how many draws will be taken approx to reach 435, which is

5000/500= 10 draws from yesterdays draw. so, in conclusion, it will take 5 more months with 3500 itas to reach CRS 435 cutoff with strictly biweekly draws.

The only ray of hope here is a couple of back to back draws and also if the ita size increases to 4000 soon.

Its already 5min and still dont see the ITA? If I have 896 points will I make it? Should I call CIC? I dont see my ITA, where when how??
Seriously guys I understand your position but we ALL need to be patient. Those who made it and who didnt like me as well. Be patient the ITAs will be in their inbox for those who made it. If it has been more than 24hrs and still nothing THEN ask those question and I am sure somebody here will help.

Agree, being patient will avoid lot of waste & repetitive queries in this thread

 

[Gagan4790]

Now, those who hv got invites, can we join in a group for furthur information sharing?

would anyone be kind enough to help me in deciding the right NOC heading. i am a government officer with the following set of duties:

Job Duties:
(i) Examination of export/import consignments/ goods at wharfs/ Dry ports/ Airport/ Customs stations etc. and detection of mis-declarations.
(ii) Reconciliation/audit of temporary import bonds (Raw material & machinery).
(iii) Assessment of duty/taxes and determination of value of consignment in accordance with the Customs Act, 1969.
(iv) Confirmation of Pakistan Customs Tariff(PCT) headings, ascertains and cross checks the value, type quality and quantity of the consignment.

Looks to me like the closest match would be NOC 1315 - Customs, ship and other brokers. A word of caution though: before you put that as your main NOC, do check if IRCC has placed a requirement for a certain qualification, which you may or may not have.

Another one you may consider would be NOC 1228 Employment insurance, immigration, border services and revenue officers. Do read the detailed descriptions of each NOCs before deciding which one best fits your experience. All the best.

Calculations I have done on net new applicants entering the pool at different CRS point levels, based on the CRS pool distributions:

From oct 26th to Nov 9th:
above 440: 171 per day
above 430: 239 per day
above 410: 272 per day

From Nov 9th to Nov 30th:
above 440:174 per day
above 430:213 per day
above 410:237 per day

Nov 30th to Dec 18th:
above 440:171 per day
above 430:197 per day
above 410:215 per day

Dec 18th to Jan 4th
above 440:161 per day
above 430:195 per day
above 410:211 per day

Jan 4th to Jan 18th:
above 440:163 per day
above 430:193 per day
above 410:221 per day

from Jan 18th to Feb 1st:
above 440:186 per day
above 430:216 per day
above 410:258 per day

From Feb 1st to Feb 15th:
above 440:227 per day
above 430:257 per day
above 410:278 per day

From Feb 15th to Mar 8th:
above 440:226 per day
above 430:261 per day
above 410:279 per day

From Mar 8th to Mar 20th:
above 440:181 per day
above 430:226 per day
above 410:252 per day

From Mar 20th to Apr 4th:
above 440:196 per day
above 430:216 per day
above 410:235 per day

For those interested in how the calculations are done, here is a sample:

For example, lets take calculation for above 440 from Dec 18th to Jan 4th:
All those with CRS points 440 and above on Jan 4th= 233+1374+1274=2881
All those with CRS points 440 and above on Dec 18th=420+1211+1260=2891
We know that the Jan 4th value is = Dec 18th value + net entrants into pool (i.e new entrants - expired entries) - ITAs from Dec 20th
2881=2891 + net entrants - 2750
2881-2891+2750=net entrants
So we have net entrants between Jan 4th and Dec 18th with crs above 440 = 2740
Therefore we have average entrants per day above 440 between Jan 4th and Dec 18th= 2740/17=161

The values listed are cumulative:
above 430=(430 to 440) + above 440.
so if you want only 430 to 440 per day you can calculate that by subtracting above 440 from above 430 value.
i.e) people entering the pool with score between 430 to 440 from feb 15th to march 8th would be 261-226=35 per day

Wow! Nice statistical work.
Its really a huge avg number per day & the pool is only getting larger by the day!
