Hi! I don't know why Bright.Angel made such cheap statement without mentioning any authentic reference!! I think we should share authentic information here in this forum, information should not based on assumption. However, If you see the following CIC news which was published on 8th March 2016 under the heading 'Government of Canada releases its ambitious plan for 2016 immigration levels', you would see their target for the year 2016 would be in between 280K to 305K where Federal Economic - High Skilled (Except Quebec) would be 58,400 (Target) published under the heading 'Canada's 2016 Immigration Levels Plan'. Another news which was published on 8th March 2016 under the heading '2015 Annual Report to Parliament on Immigration', submitted by Minister of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship, Mr. John McCallum, he quoted on his Express Entry heading....
'To prepare for the launch of Express Entry in 2015, the Government of Canada began accepting applications under new caps for the Federal Skilled Workers Program, Federal Skilled Trades Program and Canadian Experience Class in May 2014. These measures helped to supplement the Canadian work force in areas where there were skills shortages, and helped to prevent backlogs and improve processing times. In 2016, the Government of Canada will complete processing of these applications, ensuring these economic immigrants can come to Canada and enter the Canadian labour market.'
So the abstract is, as because only first 3 months of 2016 have been passed and we have seen MR request ceased for a long while, also we strongly believe that within this 3 months period they did not complete medical for this 58,400 applicant (Federal Economic - High Skilled (Except Quebec)). In conclusion I would like to mention that the statement made by Bright.Angel is not correct. I would like to request all the applicant to keep patience and keep faith on Allah (SWT), HE would decide whatever better for us.
Best Regards
