wow... just been only 1 day in this forum and learnt a lot. why why didn't I see this before... whyyyy...
anyway, many thanks to all the contributors. And I have a question for the experts...
Should we apply for new express entry scheme even our 2014-December applications are still pending?
Will that be a violation of any rules? (Having signed up for one scheme and applying again for another before getting a response from the former)
By the way considering they are still going through end of Nov files, it might take another month for them to complete all Dec apps. By that time January draw will be over.
Also on the side note, do you think there is any chance under new scheme for those who do not have a job offer?
(I guess they give more than 50% of the new points if u have a job offer making very slim chances for those who are without an offer, to come to the top at the draw)
What do you think guys?
No brother..it will definitely not be a violation...you can go ahead and apply as many people are doing....
Here's what the official page says

"30. I am currently waiting for my application for permanent residence to be processed in the Federal Skilled Worker Program. Can I submit an Express Entry profile?
You may submit a new Express Entry profile, but it is not necessary. However, we will not refund any processing fees paid related to your original application. Your existing application will be processed based on the rules in place at the time you applied.
If you choose to create an Express Entry profile and are invited to apply, you will be required to submit a new application for permanent residence and the associated processing fees."
Good luck...
