 guys welcome back to our YouTube channel. I have been waiting for yesterday's news since so long and I'm sure all of you must have been waiting for it. In fact the news was so much awaited that past one one and a half year whatever it has been in immigration it has been really slow. As much as updates we could give on our social media channels you know Instagram or LinkedIn page or YouTube we were trying to give that. But here comes the draw yesterday it was the much awaited draw I would say. But with only 1500 applications which was of course not as expected because every time before that the express entry for overseas people has been around 4,000 to 5,000 applications selected. Now because they are trying to process the files within say six months of selection six months of processing time and they're also trying to simultaneously clear the backlog especially from files like India and from files in Pakistan and in UAE. So they're trying to clear those files so the backlog backlog has increased so that is why I think the number of applications has gone down to 1500. In my view the cutoff was really high but it was also expected that the first few draws are going to be around you know above 525, 535 that was the tentative. But if you look at the pool score system and if you look at internal memos of IRCC it was very clear that the cutoff had to be that much because a lot of people sitting in the pool had tried to increase their scores. So so many of our clients who got the invitation to apply we were only getting that because of the entrepreneurship LMIA programs that we had given them the LMIA's of NOG double O which gave them 200 points in their CRS. So this kind of program for their you know the chief if you are the senior manager of your own company wherein you get the LMIA you get CRS points you have a very good I'll score or even if you have a mediocre I'll score you have you have a good point system these kind of profiles would have been selected that was very much anticipated. Now in my opinion if you ask me when the draw is going to come down like say 494, 8500, 510 at least I would say not for another six months. Of course we have to keep in mind that the number of draws also that happened. Now if for example the draws happen after every bi-week like it used to happen post COVID pre-COVID then of course the draw system is gonna be you know the files are gonna get less every time they take out the draws and the cutoff between 461 to 500 would obviously be there sometime within six months. But here's an alarm after six months there's a possibility of C19 becoming a law which is a bill right now it might become a law and there are some certain kind of NOGs which will be added in it will become a draw which is NOG specific. So coming back to that that is again something that we are watching very closely as soon as we have any updates with IRCC will give you we definitely love to share all the information that we have but for now 557 cutoff what I understand is way too high a lot of people have panicked over it and they are asking if this is going to come down this is going to come down but nothing less than 510, 520 for a couple of months.
