How to read this

Odds are the share of first-choice applicants at your exact point level who drew in CPW’s primary draw. Where nobody held your exact point count but CPW’s drawn-out level was below it, we show 100% (marked “above the cut”), because CPW’s preference draw takes higher point levels first.

Odds are historical, not a promise

Every number here is what happened in one past draw. Applicant counts, quotas and point creep change every year, so your odds next year can be higher or lower. Check the agency’s regulations before you apply. How this tool works.
