Ray of Hope - 95th Draw

[peacefulwarrior]

Ok but you have at least 1 Year of experience in your Primary NOC right ?
If thats true go for the fellowship you want

Keep these in mind:
1. It should be a paid full time fellowship (40+ hours a week)
2. You should be able to get a Letter of Reference, Pay Slips and Bank deposits for this

If you feel you can get these stuff if you get ITA, go for the fellowship

Full time Experience means 30 hours / Week not 40!

is that the way they total your work experience ?
Cuz in one of my job, the letter states I worked 45 hours per week and I was there for 1 year and 8 months. as per 30 hours per week, then my total work experience at that job would be 2 years and 4 months.

is that correct ?

Nope. It should be minimum 30hours/week to be considered as Full Time. Now even if you have worked 45 hours/ Week, it will be considered based on duration not working hours.

the next draw is most likely to be on the 25th so I'd say yea there's a good chance but then again it depends on the cutoff score.
but wouldn't you need to submit a fresh IELTS once again seeing how that it expires before you would have submitted a PR application? I'm not sure about that though.

If IRCC don’t surprise us with a 3 week interval, then you’re in a good position

Do you have some analysis to back this statement? I feel this year it's a totally different game. Anyone below 441 should look for alternatives.

PS : I'm stuck at 435

IF the IRCC continues the trend of bi-weekly draws, that is. 435 will be achievable year-end if this continues. Of course, if you can't wait anymore (as is the case for the majority here because of birthday/age), then by all means do everything you can to increase your score.

We almost touched sub-440 back in May/June then IRCC just had to have a 3-week break which lost 1 draw iin favor of those above 450, consequently resulting in longer waiting times for those in sub440s but we'll get there.

Can someone explain what are the factors for arranged employment without an LMIA?
Note: From January 1, 2015 to November 19, 2016, jobs offers that didn’t need an LMIA were not considered valid for Express Entry. We now accept certain job offers that don’t need an LMIA.

I think 440 is good already for this year but if you still want to go for re-eval, you have to give back your exam to the main IDP office in your city and pay the necessary fees.

It will be a little tricky since you give it for re-eval, you'll not be able to use the score for any intermediate draw(s). My suggestion would be to at least wait till 25th and see what the cut-off of this draw will be. If it is 440 or 441, you should probably wait for the next draw. But if it is 442+, then go for re-eval.
