Ray Of Hope - 87th Draw

[Annlinet]

Sorry to bother, but are you Irish?

Nope...I am not Irish..

 

[indpnv]

if CRS on next draw is 444 it wont be that bad.

keep into account that the IELTS result are out this week, thus i believe it will be challenging as always. let's keep the hope

Well, 444 still kinda sucks for someone with a 438. With random 3 week draws and the H1B folks applying as an insurance, things are tough.

I am sure all H1Bs applying are not doing so as insurance. Some genuinely aspire to settle in Canada rather than in US. I do agree to the point though that there are many who are applying as an insurance.

Agreed, I too am a former H1B guy and I genuinely want to settle down in Canada. Lot of folks I know of are applying just as an insurance even though they have US GC or the OPT coming up.

I wonder if this will be anything of use ( or just a stream closing/opening )

Got a jittery feeling reading this

Got a jittery feeling reading this

I mean it could just be something like website maintenance or some other thing, I don't think it is the kind of thing to be too worried about, as they have not used up their annual allocation so far ( according to the amount of NOIs they have sent so far ). Or it could be the Masters stream re-opening.

Ray of hope remember

Hope so. For sure it's not maintenance news as those are without such a note. Just went through previous such notes - mostly it's about a stream closing /opening as you mentioned.

As there is no draw today I think next draw cut off is going to be above 450..

Ray of hope remember

See they have a litl over 50% quota for FSW HCP Stream. So that would bring it down to approx 3500. Approx 1500 Nominations have been issued, and 1800 NOIs. So, not a lot of room left...

So in case OINP is closed for a month or two or more, does it affect our express entry in any way? I mean less people entering EE with nomination and such?

It wouldn't affect EE immediately, couple of months - yeah, assuming the ones who got the NOI back in January are just getting that 600 points

 

[vish82]

Even if something happens next Monday, the cutoff wouldn't decrease that much, Am predicting something around 444.

As much as I would like to say CRS will come down in late 420s - mid 430s, it doesn't look like it and I agree with your prediction. Mostly it may be between 442-445. However, I have a strong feeling going into May, it will only reduce with sustained mid 440s since a while now.
