Hey Canadian mom,

I was responding to a post in the Global forum( see the excerpt below)

"Everyone whose application has not been DD'ed or CC'ed, please note that if it is not DD'ed or CC'ed before 31st Dec, 2014, you might be dumped into the Express Entry pool of applications starting on 1st Jan 2015 or at least you will be offered either of the two options 1)return you back your application without charging you OR 2)-Transfer your application to Express Entry pool of applications.

Read below wordings of Minister of Immigration Alexander on CBC:-
Quote:
"It's the new system for delivering all of our economic programs starting on Jan. 1, 2015. Express entry could be offered to skilled immigrants who have put in an application through the fe[/color]deral skilled worker program (FSWP), the federal skilled trades program (FSTP), the Canadian experience class (CEC), and a portion of the provincial nominee program"Alexander said on Wednesday.

For verification of the information visit below link:-

http://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/skilled-immigrants-recruited-in-50-occupations-ahead-of-express-entry-launch-1.2673822"

I found it misleading so I spoke with a couple of people, friends and canadian consultants. The various responses are what I summarized in my earlier posts.
ok. Thanks a bunch! Really appreciated.

FSWP 2014 will stop collecting application by 31st December, but the completion of all accepted applications will run until they are completed by next year.

Hello People.
I dont need any oracle to tell me that the Express Entry System coming in 2015 will be a tall order for many of us. The 2014 FSWP is quite direct and will prove to be favourable for many applicants. With Express Entry (going by what Australia and New Zealand are doing), you will need to be nominated by the Government or picked by a Corporation/Employer before you can be invited to apply.

I do NOT want to be part of this thing I beg o!!

Now my question is this: Is the 2014 FSWP going to run concurrently with the 2015 Express Entry when it commences?? I ask because people who have submitted applications say in August/September and get CC charged in December, there is hardly a chance that the process will be completed before the end of December 2014. Will the processing continue inline with 2014 system or will there be some kind of migration of applicants to the new system?

success4life said:

Pls join me in expressing gratitude to God.

This Joy will go round in Jesus name.

here's the excerpts

_________________________________________________________________________________

This is in reference to your application for permanent residence in Canada.



Subsection 16(1) of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act states that a person who makes an application must answer truthfully all questions put to them for the purpose of the examination and must produce a visa and all relevant evidence and documents that the officer reasonably requires. In order for us to continue the processing of your application, we require the following:

- Medical examination for the entire family. Medical forms will be sent to you via email tomorrow.

- Right of Permanent Residence Fee for you and your spouse.

- Updated IMM 5669- Schedule A for you and your spouse listing all personal and address history from the age of 18 with no time gaps.

- Photos of you and your spouse taken with your three dependent children from the times of their births to present.

- The NPC birth certificates for your two older dependents were issued shortly after their births but the birth certificate for your youngest was only issued two and half years after birth, please explain why.



Forms, instructions and specifications can be found at



*** To avoid delays, please submit all requested documents at the same time ***



You have 30 days from the date of this letter to submit additional information so that we may continue processing your application. Please note this will be the ONLY opportunity we will provide for you to submit additional evidence. Your application will be assessed in 30 days and the final decision will be based on the evidence on file at that time. If you choose not to respond with additional information I will make my decision based on the information before me, which may result in the refusal of your application.



Please note that submission in person will not be accepted.



Thank you for the interest you have shown in Canada and I look forward to receiving your additional information.

I observed a slight change in the generic application form. Question 4 which used to be "Immigration Office requested for processing this application" ie where we ordinarily input Accra, Ghana, is no more there in the form. What could be a possible explanation/rationale for the change.

Does anyone in the house have any idea?

Hey Pips,

Kindly advise if I'm still on trace for this program
Application received 15th Sept
Not yet Charged and the NOC I applied for has capped

Should I still be hopeful that my application is part of the 1000 application for 2171 or I should forget and try again in 2015
