Just curious as I'm also thinking about changing career to IT but don't really know where to start. What did you do before IT and how did you transition into it? And what do you do in IT now?

Medicals expired on the 22nd. Status changed to you do not need a medical. I hope they get renewed, really don't want to go through the hassle of giving them again.

No. There's no sign of the draws returning anytime soon. And even when they do, there isn't any realistic chance for the cuttoff to fall to 414.

Oh ok. I wish someone would process Ottawa's backlog for them haha.

Last year during Covid, all VOs were sleeping and Accra was wide awake. FSWs were getting approvals in like 3 months, it was crazy. It lasted for a few months but then they also got quiet like the rest of the VOs. Ottawa however has been consistently sleeping for the past 2 years, just my luck.

Of course that's one of the reason why we want IRCC to tell us something. Even if they are going to pull something like the visitor visas, it's in everyone's interest for them to go ahead and do it as quickly as possible, so as many people as possible still have enough points to re apply. That's...

It's the absolute silence and pretending FSW doesn't exist that is causing all the issue. If they came out and gave a timeline, it would allay everyone's fears. It's the uncertainty that's causing people to think that applications will be stuck in limbo for years and then cancelled. There is...

I just want the processing time page to start showing that they are processing FSW apps. Surely that's not too much to hope for. Sigh.

As a post AOR, I'd love nothing more than to pay an extra fee and have my application expedited. But unfortunately, that's not something that can happen overnight. It'll mean many, many more months of my application stuck in limbo before the government can figure out a mechanism for that. A big...

Actually the only way you’ll see a draw on 1st Sep is if youre on psychedelics haha

This thread sure moves fast lol. I check every night and there are 10 new pages. Go through each one of them hoping against all odds to see good news. Border opening is the new benchmark now. If it opens as planned (which I think it should, given the sentiment on the ground and upcoming...

That's great! What's your VO?

What other options are there? I’d really like to know too.

I agree. This is virtually the only outland program in the developed world, that isn't restricted to only certain NOCs. And it used to work pretty well before Covid struck. I only hope they can get their act together and go back it's usual self.

Honestly those signs aren't really much more than grasping at straws tbh. When the month wise AOR threads start showing activity, multiple people commenting that they got PPR etc, like it used to happen before last year. That's the sign i'm looking for. Hopefully that will start in September...

What's your score?

All this uncertainty is what's the most annoying. When I got RPRF request in Jan, I was so happy, thinking I was near the finish line. Little did I know. I just want a sign, if not an outright formal announcement that they've actually started processing apps from 2020. Like that tracker on the...

I hope not. Because that would mean what he's saying is true haha

What? It takes more than a day for that? Is that the standard time for all Canadian banks? That’s very strange for a first world country.

Same. Trying not to get my hopes back up for September. Besides, based on the documents posted by Legalfalcon, my application is going to be placed in group C as my medicals will expire in a couple of months. But as long as there's some movement, some sign that they've resumed processing in...
