Hi Venu

You need to go through the FSW Eligibility segment that clearly answers your questions.

To give you a brief idea, you need to have a minimum of 1 Year in full time or equivalent part time paid and continuos experience in any 1 of the 50 eligible NOCs to qualify. Additional work experience in any other eligible NOCs or skill Type that falls under Skill level 0, A and B can be used to accumulate points.

Good luck.

Some predictions based on new status update from CIC. Everyone is interested in knowing when the caps will fill. The following chart shows predictions based on three separate modes of prediction, for 4 hottest NOCs and the total cap. Actual situation will most likely be anywhere between quadratic and linear, and that may vary among different NOCs as well. And obviously, the inherent lag in the CIC website update to the real situation is going to be a factor too. Note that this chart only predicts the dates when CIC website will announce that the CAP is full. It doesn't tell which date applications will those be at that time.

CIC status update on 09/02/2014

I doubt it will be linear. The problem with the IT NOCs is that you have a option to chose between the 5 NOC, since their roles are inter related and most of the senior guys played at least 2-3 NOC roles in their career. So based on the trend one can switch to which NOC they will apply. For example, I at first thought about applying to 2173, but after seeing the trend in SS and the CIC site, I decided to go for the 2171. This is generally true for most of the IT professionals. So what I am basically saying is that IT NOCs will be filled up more systematically and will be evenly distributaed and it is easy to say which NOC apps are going to CIC at this month. Now that we have some idea on the top 2174 and 2173 NOC, I bet current application that are reaching CIC will be mostly on 2171 and 2281. Next on the line will be 2172.

Thanks for this analysis.
Potential applicants and forum members alike can have direction as per when to file or not.
We expect more NOCs capping analysis from the seniors and others in the forum.

Well, there are 2 facets to your question. First - you need to decide which NOC fits in to your Duties and Experiences, present and/or past. I am assuming you do not qualify for all the 4 NOCs ?

Secondly, If I did have an option, I would forget 2174 and try and keep distance from 2173 as much as possible.

2171 is decent and 2172 is the safest.

I AM CONFUSED ABOUT THE CAP ISSUE. CIC APPROVED 25500 APPLICATIONS FOR 2014 FSW FOR 50 ELIGIBLE OCCUPATIONS. THE SUB CAP FOR EACH OCCUPATION IS 1000. WILL THE TOTAL NOT AMOUNT TO OVER 50000 APPLICATIONS? IS IT LOGICAL? I JUST NEED SOME CLARIFICATIONS.

It basically means a NOC will take a maximum of 1000 apps. This is because not all 50 NOC are equally popular. So 25000 is the max limit for all the NOC and 1000 is the max limit for a particular NOC. So for example if NOC 2174 got 1000 application by the end of September they will stop processing that NOC 2174 even if the total apps count is something like 7000. On the other hand if the total apps received reached 25000 and there is less number in NOC like 2172 they will stop processing those apps for that NOC that came after 25000 cap reached.

Hope this make sense.

sent in July.
