I agree with you ........ I's just reading Canada Gazette and they're saying that new regulations for FSW would come into force on Jan 01, 2013........so may be they'd start accepting applications afterwards, or may be from Jan..

wel as per web news it seems that they are comming on/or before 1st Jan'13 with final draft of rules. And intake suppose to start with 1st- Jan'13. But we know that credential asseccment is newly propossed so definatly it will consume some time(months) for asseccment and definatly carry additional Fees also. So need to ready with extra passion and also CADs.... I think canada will try to adapt immigration system like Australiya has. So it might be more costlier in terms of Fees and all but open for all catagory with annual quota limite...... Lets c...
Hope for the Best.

Today, CIC is stating on their website the following:

Coming soon—a fresh new look!
We're almost ready to launch a new look and feel for the CIC website. The changes will make it easier to find information and easier to use the site.

Hopefully, very soon, they'll up-date site and we'll then come to know all we want to know.....best of luck for all.

Hi all,

This is the time to have all of our credentials ready (by virtue of every aspect), so that the moment CIC announces credentials assessing agency (per CIC.gc.ca, they're gonna publish these details by end 2012 - Canada remains closed from Dec 22 till Jan 01, so we can expect to have details up-dated before Dec 22 this year), we can immediately apply for our credentials assessment ASAP. Sooner & quicker would be hitting the ground.

On CIC website, they are saying that new criteria will be published (for FSW Class) by end 2012 - keep in mind Canada remains close from Dec 22 to Jan 01 - so I expect that they'll publish before Dec 22.......

A major next step in building a fast and flexible immigration system will be the creation of a pool of skilled workers ready to begin employment in Canada, a commitment made in Economic Action Plan 2012.

Inspired by an approach developed by New Zealand – and now also being used in Australia – an Expression of Interest application system is the model the Government of Canada plans to use to create this pool of skilled workers.

Under an Expression of Interest system – or EOI – prospective immigrants fill in an online form indicating their “interest” in coming to a host country as permanent residents. The form can include information that relates to, for example, language proficiency, work experience and assessed education credentials.

Assigned a points score and ranked, these expressions of interest would then be entered into a pool from which candidates that best match a country’s national and regional skills needs can be drawn and invited to submit an immigration application, subject to priority processing.

In effect, the EOI form submitted by a prospective immigrant is not an application itself but only a first stage in the assessment of a potential candidate. Not all candidates who file an expression of interest are invited to apply for a permanent resident visa.

Consultations with provinces, territories and stakeholders on the development of an EOI system for Canada are underway. Of interest to CIC is the potential for a larger role for employers in the immigration program, leveraged through EOI.

As part of ongoing consultations, CIC has held roundtables with employers in a number of cities to discuss how such a system could help meet employer needs. A report on these recent discussions will be available on the consultations section of the CIC website soon.

With the elimination of the Federal Skilled Worker backlog, CIC anticipates being able to move to an EOI system that will: avoid the build-up of inventories and improve processing times; and make the immigration system more responsive to labour market needs and increase the likelihood of skilled immigrants’ success.
