Ray of Hope - STEM Draw

[iSaidGoodDay]

Why so?
There are no draws because of IT issues and during this maintenance the problem might be resolved.

I feel the same as you do. Maintenance is them working on fixing something, we don't know if they are going to fix the draw related issues, but something will be fixed.

And now we have "Our online services are unavailable. Please try again later. Thank you for your patience."

That is exactly what I was talking about.

Actually according to the ppl on this forum, the glitch was fixed after the maintenance last friday, but still no draw today.

 

[ViktorKosenko]

There are still multiple issues reported.

What kind of issues? Still can't submit applications?

You shouldn't trust speculations from us as the source of truth. IRCC said they'll make up for the missed draws, that's the only positive we've got right now.

this tweet is still pinned, so looks like they need another maintenance (or more than 1 =) ) to fix the issue.

As expected CRS 561

 

[ViktorKosenko]

And a Round type is named General. Something new.

And so many people in the pool...
Has anyone calculated somehow approximate percentage of STEM group NOCs in the pool?

Express Entry system #273– December 7, 2023

Nope, not STEM again...

Wow, 470 for French draw with 1000 invitations. Thats really high for even French draw. Is there any hope for 483 for STEM draw?

There are some countries where everyone holds a masters and they speak french (e.g. Algeria where there's no bachelors program and French is the language), the number could go very high if there's a lot more awareness about EE in those countries.

Its really sad at this point. I am just 24 and I have a 2 years Masters in Canada and the max point I can get is just 483 doesn't even come close to current cutoffs. I have currently worked for 5 months in Canada, even after one year of work, my point would be around 515 which I don't think would be enough anymore with the way things are currently.
