All who are applying for May 2013

[Pharma2005]

Everyone,

I thought we can gather our collective knowledge here for 2013. Since new FSW guidelines and adjusted points system is upcoming up, its best if all of us who are in the pre-application planning stage start with their insights on how they are doing their things.

personally, I am losing out due to adjustments in points related to "work experience" - now lesser points as compared to prior years. Will need to figure out how to bump up the total points.

Anyway, share your ideas, application strategies, etc.

Thanks a lot to everyone on this forum!!

If you want the points - then you need to take the test. No test = no point.

Assume teachers will not be on the occupation list that CIC is going to release in April. Canada has too many teachers.
