For those between 300-400. Canada's immigration is stricter than Australia
- Thread starter poper
- Start date
Since CIC is going to invite as many people as they believe Canada needs, it's not possible to say for sure when, or even if, the cut off will go below 400 or reach 300 points.
All we can do is speculate, but it does not change anything.
I don't know anything about the australian immigration system, so I can't say if it's stricter or not than then canadian immigration system.

Employer Nomination Scheme (186)
The Employer Nomination Scheme (186) gives you (and any family members) permanent residency.
There are two Employer Nomination Scheme (186) streams.
As the most commonly applied for and granted visa program for skilled workers to obtain sponsorship and employment in Australia, the 457 visa program allows people to work temporarily in Australia for up to four years, but it does not guarantee residence.
How does the 457 visa work?
With a 457 visa you can work in Australia for up to four years. You can bring your family with you (they can work and study) and you can travel in and out of Australia as often as you like.
The employer/sponsor must
apply to be a sponsor to recruit overseas workers; nominate the positions they want to fill; recruit the overseas workers to fill the nominated positions; and act as a sponsor for employees applying for a visa.
You as the employee accept the offer of employment from the employer; apply for the visa; and meet all the conditions of your visa.
