Ray of Hope - 90th Draw

[Eli31]

1200 profiles above 441 in 4 days ????? woooooooooo this is getting HOT babies, better lern french ASAP

 

[samikdg]

That data is till 4th May. More and more people get added to Pool each day.

Maverick, can you please comment if that rate of 1200 / 4 days or 300 / day addition of profiles with CRS of 442 or more is a normal occurence? Because that means it will be around 4200 for 2 weeks and the cut-off will never come down

Congratulations for all who got the ITA.

My points will go down to 434 by next Monday. Still hoping with Ray of hope that it will come down in 2-3 months.

IMO, you should wait for the next draw and if you don't get an ITA, you should consider IELTS. How much improvement in CRS are we talking here?

Not Maverick, but...

First of all, the rate of new applications varies a lot and it's very seasonal, because it depends on provicional nominations, IELTS results and so forth. It's not advisable to just take the last four days and run with it, you need more data than that to predict anything.

What probably happened in this case is that, as someone pointed out a few days ago, Ontario released a big batch of nominations in the past few weeks, and that probably inflated this draw a bit.

I am at 441... I have to retake IELTS. That is embarassing I've been in Canada for 4 years and my W and R is 6 was too lazy to retake, but now I feel like I have to. Ugh.. so lazy

451+ - 2524 Applicants (158 applicants entering daily)
441-450 - 1928 Applicants (38 applicants entering daily)
431-440 - 6692 Applicants (20 applicants entering daily)

This was a daily increase before previous draw. So you can see roughy 980 would be totally normal. So it's a little bit higher. I do not have time for calculations and predictions but will get to this later.

Well more and more people are applying for EE now. Canada has become the first choice for immigration. Also, people from US are applying as a backup. I personally know people, on student and work visa in US, who have applied for EE. Not only them, but people who have approved PR in US, but don't have the Green Card yet due to the waiting period of few years, are also applying. So this is not surprising at all.

Hey, at least you have this option. I'm parked at 441 having already maxed out any possible points for IELTS, and with French skills too basic to get any points from in the short future.

 

[samuelrajsrinivasan]

Anyone knows how can I check the time I created the profile? My profile creation date is Dec12,2017. :/[/QUOTE

from 440 I will be 442 minimum I might even be 445!
but here is the thing the earliest I can do IELTS is gonno be in 3 weeks and 2 weeks takes to get the result! so that is 5 weeks which means 2 draws! isn't gonno be 440 in 2 draws? what do you think?
