Hello,
My FSW application with arranged employment was returned. They enclosed a letter explaining the reason it was returned, but its language is contradictory. The letter mentions that if I re-submit, I have to review the document checklist and links to the old FSW form: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/pdf/kits/forms/IMM5612E.PDF
But then the letter also states that I have to check the Express Entry requirements, as there has been changes to FSW eligibility.
Do I have to re-submit my application using the old forms with the corrected information requested? Or do I have to discard my FSW old application, and make a Express Entry profile?
Quotes from the letter:
