can you paste link here

Reading it again. The validity of the 3000 invites is from March 14 - March 15.

63

yeah thats why i asked for link… because my knowledge it was never fixed in any draw… sometimes they go low and few times go high… average times 3000

64

Looking at this link here. https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/immigrate-canada/express-entry/become-candidate/rounds-invitations.html

It seems if the draw happened on March 8th (2 weeks apart), results would have been very different. There were only ~2600 applicants above 450.

I wonder why they waited one more week?

65

to raise the bar higher… cutoff increase…so they waited…

if there is a draw on March 21st then score may come down to 442-445… otherwise if they want to raise it again… they will not do it this week…and perhaps will wait for 1 or 2 weeks more…

66

i am waiting for them to make update on that distribution page to get latest data… IELTS result was out 3 days ago… so more profile would have been added this week…

67

Interesting. But I think any score above 460 has a good chance to be picked.

68

Yes, you are right… but i am yet to create EE profile …waiting for my eca and spouse’s eca/ielts

69

Looks like the next draw will be 28th. So we should get an update on score distribution on Friday.

@vignesh.pr Where did you read about the next draw being on March 28

71

It was an assumption. They draw on Wednesdays. Each month they have two draws. Last draw was March 14. No draw this week, so most probably next draw should be March 28.
