Hi sosoliso, check the official Gazette for FSW 2014, http://gazette.gc.ca/rp-pr/p1/2014/2014-04-26/html/notice-avis-eng.php

A maximum of 25 500 new complete applications submitted for the Federal Skilled Worker Class, without an offer of arranged employment, will be considered for processing for the period of May 1, 2014, to April 30, 2015, unless otherwise indicated in a future Ministerial Instruction.

There's no new Ministerial Instruction countering the one above so for now the December 31st talk is just rumor. Cheers

Canada's highest (and lowest) paying jobs of 2014

Peter Harris| Nov 25, 2014 04:15 pm
"As 2014 draws to a close, and many people start formulating their New Year's resolutions and goals for 2015, we thought that it was a good time to take a look back at some of the country's most (and least) lucrative jobs to have.

To start in the middle, according to Statistics Canada, the average wage for Canadian employees is currently $928 per week – or just about $48,250 a year – based on a 40-hour workweek. Most of the jobs on our high paying list earn at least three times that much in 2014. (And the lowest paying occupations paid less than half the average.)

The highest paying jobs in Canada:

Specialist physicians at the high end of the pay scale they can earn over $375,000
Dentist – $287,303
Family physicians – $272,750
Lawyers at the top end of the pay scale make $272,550
Judges $176,800
Senior Managers of Goods Production, Utilities, Transportation, and Construction – $165,000
Senior managers in Finance and Communications can earn $160,000
Actuaries earn $155,000
Engineering managers – $137,000
Top paid Airline Pilots make $138,000
Of course most of the country's lowest paying jobs will simply pay the minimum wage of whatever region the job happens to be located in. Towards the low end of the scale that is roughly $9.95 an hour earning someone just over $20,000 – assuming they worked full time and were paid for 40 hours a week.

The lowest paying jobs in Canada:

Sewing machine operator – $19,760
Cashier – $20,700
Ironing, pressing and finishing occupations $20,700
Artisans $21,320
Bartender – $21,000
Harvesting labourer – $19,750
Service station attendant – $19,750
Food and beverage server – $22,000
Food counter attendant / kitchen help – $19,750
Babysitters, nannies, and parent's helpers – $19,750
Of course this doesn't take into account tipping. Bartenders and wait staff, particularly at higher end establishments can make very comfortable incomes with low hourly wages but the bulk of their income coming from tips. (See Confessions of the $100,000 waitress)

The Federal government's Working in Canada website breaks down the salaries for different occupation by province and even by city. It's a useful tool for seeing how your paycheque measures up – and preparing for your next salary negotiation."

Just to thank you all for the congratulatory messages you drop-by.

I pray God to open the floodgate of good news in various stages we are in Jesus name.

NONE will be left out from this goodies and favor.

Thank you.

Congratulations!

Please I want to know what happens if your CC or DD is cashed and your application is returned, how do you get your money back? Replies please :'(

Unfortunately, this has happened before and a Canadian draft for the fee is sometimes placed in the returned application package. Most times, the draft comes later after the package has been returned.

It shall not be our portion by the power of the Most High God

Hello guys,

I have been a passive member of this forum and I must confess you guys are doing a terrific job. More power to your elbows sirs and Mas smiley

I'm an October 27th applicant, NOC 1111. I just found out I made a mistake while filling out my IMM 5046 form (Additional Family information form). I'm the principal applicant with my wife as an accompanying spouse. We both filled out the form but on both forms, my name comes on the applicant column, while her name is in the spouse column. I'm just realizing her name should be on the applicant column on her form. All other information were correctly filled.

My worry is this, will this mistake warrant outright rejection of my application?? if yes, how can i correct it before my application goes in for completeness check next month? undecided ? if i want to send an amended IMM5046 form, how do I go about it? please this is very urgent...help a brother please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It is advisable you quickly send another application, it will only cost your courier fee.

A lot of us also make the same mistake(my self even our champion Pip), if every other information is okay this cannot lead to rejection relax your mind and keep praying. At a later stage Accra will request for the form to be submitted again.
As regards Eagle101 advice im not sure you can submit same application again because you have already submitted your IELTS, ECA results and that will results in two application being submitted.
