I don't think so. My friend who worked in a big bank had to submit prove of work authorization or risk getting terminated from his SDE position. Luckily, he got invited in the STEM draw last december as his permit was expiring within 2 months. After the invite, he submitted the PR application...

Man you worked in such toxic companies. I worked in one where the manager was also Indian and employed such scammy passive aggresive tactics - not sure why he did that but I simply moved to another company given my background and my education pedigree making it easy to move around in Canada...

Well the low number of draws definitely isn't exactly good for his business. Also, the francophones aren't exactly going to him but rather its mostly the Indian students of which the number is definitely going down in the near future. With scores being high, very few FSWs would get in if any.

They used to draw like 400-500 people every 2 weeks last year. Are they slowing down due to the number of application they need to review?

I don't get that. Doesn't that only affect the eligibility for CEC, not that its useful since they haven't conducted any CEC draws since Covid. How is he points losing for Canadian experience ? The question in CRS calculator asks for years of Canadian experience in the past 10 years. I do...

That's the eligibility for CEC, for FSW. they look at the last 10 years

I know many people working in corporate already looking for jobs in their home country or elsewhere. There are like thousands of people in this situation easily. Some have booked a ticket back a week after they achieve another 2 yrs of Canadian work experience lol

Where did you get the number ?

Lets make FSW great again. All of this started in 2016 when they started giving CRS points for diplomas. By the way, Did your friends do a diploma ? I think one with a (Canadian master+ 1 year Canadian experience) or a Canadian bachelor degree + 2 years of Canadian experience) would still have...

I doubt his EE CRS would be high enough given his SWM points. 600 SWM scores is a tell-tale sign that he went to school and worked in another Canadian province.

Funny you say that. Things are getting really expensive in my home country compared to 7 years ago and its only an upper middle income country. In 20 years they aim to become developed and labor cost would probably get expensive (good for the people) by the time I retire.

Yep already did. its just a fun waiting game now

Lol don't blame me. I knew the situation was getting worse when they started granting PGWP extension without any thoughts for PR quotas. I probably would have gotten an LAA last year but sadly my situation with my previous employer was really bad so I lost that opportunity. Now when I just got...

The new premier (wab kinew) appear to focus on family reunification. Yeah, I also don't like the fact that they only do close relatives in Manitoba - They should just go with the typical NOC based draws which was more equitable. A lot of PGWPs are expiring this year so it'd be interesting to...

So they are 2 separate pools and identified by whether you claim Manitoba Demand category or not.

How does SWO and SWM differs (outside of minimum 60 points) ? What determines if someone qualifies through SWO or SWM ? Does Is it similar to CEC/FSW ? For some CECs, they may also qualify via FSW through updating the proof of funds in their profile. I am guessing they limit people who claim...

There's no such trends. They have only started conducting "close relative in manitoba selection" and "education in Manitoba" category since November 30, 2023. Before that, they used to conduct draws based on random NOCs - This started February 2023 ish when people started complaining in the...

Luckily I have a PNP application in progress. But I was wondering what would happen if I were dumb enough to chase only express entry. There's quite a number of coworkers in my org who're already booking ticket home for good this holiday, most are bachelor graduate so losing a lot of scores due...

How did you have access to this information ?

Not wrong, but you need be young, have Canadian degree (master preferred), 2 years of canadian work experience minimum. at least 1 year of foreign work experience, and CLB 9 to get to 540s
