Other tools often show a single score for today. Northway’s timeline answers a different question: if you are still waiting in two years, what happens under current rules?
Month by month, age bands, Canadian or foreign work-year tiers, language validity, and ECA validity can change the estimate. We draw a step chart because CRS points jump — smoothing would misrepresent the data.
Projections use the current rule set and are labeled as such. If IRCC changes tables (for example future job-offer reforms), results would change.
Optional year-month facts unlock precise cliffs. We never ask for a full date of birth — year and month only.
FAQ
- Is the timeline a guarantee?
- No. It is a self-assessment projection under current published tables.
Self-assessment information and estimates — not a decision about your case, and not legal advice.
