Ray of Hope - 112th Draw

[jasmin-alladin]

If you are not losing points for age anytime soon, you don't have to panic.. you will eventually get it.. just a matter of time.. you will get it in either March or April..

My bday is on May. I had a remarked on ielts and results came after the draw. I should have been there but maybe its not yet the right time

Mostly next draw would be on March 6th, but there is a slight chance it will happen next week.

Assuming they continue with 3350 ITAs.
If the next draw is on
Feb 27 - cut off around 445
OR
Mar 6 - cut off around 450

I'm going with March 6 too next draw. No back to back draw for a while. They need to clear backlogs

DAMN!! 457

I did expect it to be 450+. 457 is indeed high. Not surprising since it's a 3 week gap and more and more people are applying!!

Yeah even the time when they draw for 439, the following draw was high as well...cane to 449.

Hello guys,
My score is 453 - what do you think my chances are in the forthcoming rounds?

I created my EE profile this February.
My birthday comes in August, post which I start losing points.

Shall I work on improving my IELTS score or shall I wait for a couple of months.

Please advise.

Regards,
Gautam

You will get ITA in next draw unless CIC does another 3 week gap draw.

So frustrating. I’ve been ready with my IELTS Score since 15 Dec 18. WES delayed sending out my evaluation for nearly three months and finally popped it out on 13 Feb. If they’d handed it to me even two weeks sooner I’d have been through. I’m at 440 CRS, and my birthdays on 28th Feb. Looks hopeless. I’ll be down to 434 on the 28th.

There is still Ontario buddy!!

There is always a way!! I learnt it through the hard way too.

My crs is 459, however I haven’t got the invitation in this draw. My application has been in the pool from 11 th feb 2019 only. Is this the possible reason of not getting an ITA

All those who had CRS greater than 457, please wait 24 hours for receiving ITA.

ITA is sent to all profiles within 24 hours after the draw, so you may not receive it immediately.

They have marketed this EE system very well. More and more people are applying and they're reaping the benefits.

Unless Australia up their EOI system, scores are typically going to be high in the future

I also suffered from the same problem. In my case, WES took 6 months to complete my evaluation report including double verification from my university which is insane. Anyway, that is past now. Let's see how long it would take to bring down the cut-off.
There are the chances of OINP NOIs next month.

What’s really ridiculous is that i have two American degrees, both are much like Canadian degrees, and they just farted around for two months before telling me they needed to see my degree certificates. I mean they could’ve just said so in the first place. Wasted so much time.

Thanks a lot Abhishek_89 ... Its a relief to know this piece of important information.

Exactly, although they have customer care service, those persons who attend the call have no clues what is going on with the evaluation process or where is the problem and they just tell the same as displaying in the account status. It was a really frustrating experience for me.

ITAs were 3900!

When I applied to WES, in the submission it asked me to mail my degree certificates as a requirement. That’s not good enough on their part that it was not indicated as a requirement to avoid delaying your process.

448, I would say your safe. It would eventually come to that score by April
