because I achieved 400+ a week ago. However, I did receive NOI from Ontario based on my ICT occupation, but before I had chance to submit, the OINP HCP stream closed.
For everyone struggling like I was a week ago, I was devastated by it. I tried IELTS for like a thousand times (metaphor) and I was always short by 0.5, literally Always. When OINP closed, people who know me there and who have seen me active in the previous draws, know that I started laying low. But some posts from everyone (I remember each and everyone's names (by name, I mean the username) but if I will start naming here, the entire post will contain just names) pushed me to attempt one more time, and this time, I was so paranoid by IELTS that I was preparing everywhere, while commuting, during the lunch, in the home you name it, and it paid off. Finally!!
The purpose of this such a long post is to say this to everyone. Never ever give up on your dreams and goals. Keep trying and keep hitting as hard as you can. You never know which hit is the one that reveals the hidden treasure you were always looking for. I was devastated by HCP closure, but it proved that it was for good. Good things happen, and they happen for sure, however, they happen at the perfect place in the perfect moment. All you have to do is keep looking.
And this is why, I am thanking each and everyone of you over and over again, you guys have a great hand in pushing me to be where I am right now and I can't thank you all enough.
Good luck everyone, and I wish you all a speedy PR.
