Looking at the current processing times and the way IRCC...
Read MoreOntario Province has conducted its famous Tech Draw under Ontario Express Entry Human Capital Priorities Stream on Feb 16, 2021. This is considered the first tech draw of year 2021. Ontario usually conducts Tech Draw once in two months, so this time it was in February. Great. The CRS range this time is 453 – 467 and only those profiles which were created between Feb 16, 2020 to Feb 16, 2021 got the nomination. Now this is funny, cause the profiles are valid for one year only, and this combines to a complete year. Anyways, they have issued 1,186 NOIs which means, another 1000 applications are removed from express entry portal (If they accept, obviously). There are more details into it.
