CONFUSION ON CAP STATUS | PLEASE HELP ||

[rohitcan]

Dear All,

I need your help on CAP statistics on CIC website.

For example in NOC 2281 there 177 application received as per CIC website . What does that mean ?

Is that mean applications till today ( September ) they received 177 or what ?

Can someone still apply to this code ?

please reply as I really want to under stand this

The numbers on the CIC web site reflect the number of applications CIC has opened and accepted for further processing. Right now CIC is working on applications from late May. So the 177 applications for NOC 2281 reflects the number of applications received as of the end of May (not as of today).

So can one still apply in this Or what are the chances if one apply now in this group ? I mean in 2281

If you can apply within the next few days,do that but if not wait for Express Entry,Jan.2015.

Hi,

I don't why people on these forums are assuming that the NOC 2281 cap will be filling up by October 2014 end The FSW 2014 spreadsheet that gets updated everyday shows that even the pessimistic estimate shows that the NOC 2281 cap will be available till around 22nd December,2014. So even though I am not saying everybody should be comfortable to apply till December 2014, I think it is unnecessary to panic for people that are waiting to send their application to CIC till end of November.I am not a senior member of this forum nor am I here to provide any suggestions but these are my views. Not sure HOW some people in this forum are assuming that the CAP will fill up by end of October 2014???


The FSW 2014 spreadsheet hyperlink (you can google the link) says for even the "Pessimistic estimate" that the CAP will be open till ataleast December 22,2014. Consider this calculation. Even if CIC has consistently received 5 applications per day for NOC 2281 since May 1,2014 when the program opened, then in that case the total applications recieved as of October 1,2014 is 750. The FSW 2014 spreadsheet above shows around 1.44 applications added to NOC 2281 per day, I have taken pessimistic estimate of 5 APPS PER DAYAlso not all 750 of the above APPS I mention would have been rejected,lets say 100 got rejected. Still only 650 out of 1000 applications in this CAP are full. So I believe everybody should not panic that much, right???!

CAP estimates in the SS depend on projected ratios and parameters from FSW 2013. Trends in 2014 show a higher pace in several NOC's. However, I do believe that nobody knows for sure. And even if the probability of meeting the cap is 10 or 20%, why not give it a try?
