Ray of Hope - 69th Draw

[Aashy09]

Did anyone here apply for OINP?

I did

My score is 421 ...any chances in this month...?

Realisticaly and going by the current trend, you can be optimistic and expect your score to be drawn in September/October if CIC maintains 2 draws per month and issues atleast 3200-3300 ITAs

YES, it will, but only 3 more points mate. Get at listening 8.5
You may now decide what to do. All the best!

NO...BC Ielts online report does not show report number.

Woohoo!!! Finally a draw!!!


If its in 2 weeks and ~3200 ITA I predict 427 +/- 2

427 CRS cut off is not at all possible in the next draw if it happens after 2 weeks.

 

[abhishek_89]

Do we know how many weeks it will be until the next draw?

Nobody knows the draw date, only CIC knows. Usually it happens every 2 weeks.

 

[abhishek_89]

can some one explain, profiles more than 441 range is less than 3000 but ITA's given is 3000 what is the catch here

The data you are referring is as of July 27th, the additional profiles got added after July 27th till today..

Guys I have one question that I posted a thread about, but I thought I'd ask here too:

I complete my 3 years of experience at my current job on 15/09/2017 but CIC already granted me the points and we are still in August. Is this normal? This is because I received my ITA today unknowingly because I thought I still only had 2 years experience and I'm thinking about declining it for now just to be safe.

Any input on this matter would be appreciated.

Yes you have nailed it. I think they have benchmarked 440, and will wait till the pool fills to those many candidates!

Then they better have 80T people above 440 for 2018 qouta!

 

[abhishek_89]

1 point increase in 3 weeks is a positive sign that it will be difficult for score to rise beyond 440 for now. Now it all depends on how soon draws can happen for score to come down

Number of ITAs issued in each draw and the gap between the draws are the only 2 factors which determine the CRS cut off.
The only sign from this draw is that 3264 people got added to the pool with CRS 441 and above in the last 3 weeks.

Yes, exactly!

CLB 9

 

[abhishek_89]

I predicted correctly lmao... and ppl keep laughing at my prediction....I'm telling you the score would never be under 420 this year
And next one might be 435

It all depends on the number of days between the draws and the number of ITAs issued in each draw.

If they have only 1 draw every 2 weeks with 3200 ITAs, it would take a long time to reach below 420.

If they have back to back draws, then the situation would change drastically.

data for upto 27th...2113 above 441 that day... thereafter till today added 1100 ppl above 441...
~ 185 per day....

hang on tight everyone....all we need is one extra draw...let's hope CIC comes out with 69th sooner...
The plus side,despite 3 weeks,only 1 pt up...that too with some oinp & IELTS results .
nobody plz panic....

Thanks @lino82!
