Hi All/Asivad/Raj,
"Determination — number of invitations
1. (1) For the purposes of paragraph 10.2(1)(b) of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act, the number of invitations that may be issued during the period beginning on June 29, 2016 and ending on June 30, 2016 is 773.
Required rank"
As per the above statement from CIC, does CIC send invitations till midnight of June-30-2016 or it has already short listed the candidates with CRS score (482)?
I received ITA on 1-Jun-2016. As per my PGWP issue date, I was short of 18 days for 52 weeks. Considering the work experience that I have gained while WAITING for PGWP will be counted towards my 1 year of Canadian experience. If it counts, I completed my 52 weeks (i.e., 54.8 full-time weeks and 1653hrs).
I have proper documentation that I was not a full-time student during the wait time of my PGWP( which is approximately 2 months).
If I decline my invitation which I received on 1-June-2016. Will I get new invitation in this round as per the above statement from CIC?
