Hi,

I would like to know, whether it's beneficial to apply under CEC category when my PR application under FSW category is already In Process with Buffalo VO ( I beleive with the recent changes to closure of Buffalo VO, all the files would be transferred to Ottawa VO).

My PR status has not changed in last 6 months, probably due to backlogs. I will also be completing 2 yrs work experience in Canada in Jun2012 and was looking for option for applying under CEC category as the processing time for is less compared to FSW applications.

Would it be good option to apply under CEC category.?
