FSW 2014 Applicants Timeline- Lets Network Here.

[P3142]

hi Yahoo,
As per the forum applicants, the number of applications sent in the first half of May 2014 is so high and gradually it falls. You can keep stay positive and wait for the time to answer clearly.
Let's stay together hopefully and get immigrated without fail.

My CC got charged just now. I am a 15th May applicant.

Few things I would like to tell..
I did not give all stamped pages of passport.
My Letter of Reference was copied and pasted from the CIC website . But of course it was given by company HR
I gave printout the bank statements as proof of funds.

I am thankful to have so many helpful friends from the forum. Without you guys I would not have succeeded. Thanks you all.

Hi,

I qualify under both NOC 2171 (3 years exp) and NOC 1123 (7 years exp). However, I am able to procure reference letters on letter head for 2171 and it is my recent employment. I am unable to procure reference letters on letter head for NOC 1123 as some of my companies are closed and colleagues have gone to different locations. Please advise if I can still apply under 2171 and I feel the cap will be reached before I send my application. If I have to send my application in 1123, what are the alternatives for reference letters given my situation.

Any help on this is greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

:-X

40% of the CAP filled for 2174 in less than 11 days? The scene is changing real fast.

Don't forget there was a flood of application from the previous year that was received. It was just last month that they focused on May applicants

Daniel,

I guess now all educational credential agencies are super busy!
You could try to contact them to check if there is a way to pay more and have it processed faster. I remember when I did mine there was a fast track option....

Dear experts please advise,

Immigrating to Canada has been a dream for my wife and I for the last 6 months. We hired ICAS to do our education assessment.

When we hired ICAS, the expected wait time to have it done was from 6 to 8 weeks. After a few weeks the website changed and it started saying it would be from 8 to 10 weeks. That happened after we hired the service expecting it to be done withing 8 weeks.

It has been 10 weeks now and absolutely nothing has changed on the status. What do I do? Is there anything we can do to get ICAS to do what we paid them to do within the time they promised they would? It's getting to the point where CAP may be filled and everything is ready just waiting for this...

So the CIC has again updated the number of application received today... I am a 30th July candidate for 1112 NOC (382 filled as on today)... Whats your opinion on my chances... Please indicate your bestimate as % probability of being in the cap from 100% to 1%... 100% will indicate sure selection in the cap... 1% will indicate that there is not surety but there is hope...

hehe....[size=10pt][size=10pt]1% indicates that there is not surety...but hope...[/size][/size]
When u have hope within why ask people.. ;D

@ Yahoo_India
U have excluded 0% from the option, which means u r confident that there is some hope.

Well i ran through # at the time of last update on 18th Aug and cap fill date was coming out to be end of Aug.... from tht its 100%. Haven't gone through today's update....... but based on the assumption tht forum representation remain constant (or increase) from 9th May onwards, u r in sage waters as far as CAP is concerned.

P.S: U can find the calc methodology in either Oscar7 or my previous posts, u can check as per latest update (make downward adjustment of 10% to forum representation to cater for those who have recived PER but not reported and another 5% for pending PER for 13 May and before. Use 13th May as cut-off for this update.

So the CIC has again updated the number of application received today... I am a 30th July candidate for 1112 NOC (382 filled as on today)... Whats your opinion on my chances... Please indicate your bestimate as % probability of being in the cap from 100% to 1%... 100% will indicate sure selection in the cap... 1% will indicate that there is not surety but there is hope...

Sorry, I just want to make sure I understand you correctly.

Are you saying that there were applications from "last year" that were processed for FSW 2014 even before they started to look into "this year's" applicants from May 2014 ?

@ Oscar7

R u sure it says "checking" not "complete" or "processing" and who knows better than u tht completeness is when fee is charged, as very few are rejected after fee charged, we can ignore that for all practical purposes. And processing is after PER (reference first line of ECAS).


************* UPDATE********************
Excerpt from MI12 (not the Britsh its Canadian, which stands for Ministerial Instructions # 12) http://gazette.gc.ca/rp-pr/p1/2014/2014-04-26/html/notice-avis-eng.php

Cap on the number of applications to be processed
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. The maximum of 25 500 new complete applications is allocated as follows:

1. A maximum of 25 000 applications will be considered for processing under an occupation list stream. Within the 25 000 cap, a maximum of 1 000 applications submitted for each eligible occupation set out below will be considered for processing; and
................blah blah blah..............

In calculating the caps, applications will be considered in order of the date they are received. Applications received on the same date will be considered for processing having regard to routine office procedures.

Instructions for processing Federal Skilled Worker Class applications
In order to be included under the caps and considered for processing, applications must be completed according to the application kit requirements in place at the time the application is received by the designated office and must meet the criteria set out below.

[size=9pt] Hi, It is more sensible to apply in 1123 and arrange reference letter even on A4 paper there from former senior / supervisor or even a colleague as a last resort. 2171 is on the edge if you have not already sent the file, as it seems!!! Plus provide a few supporting evidences as well.

One thing that I read on CIC's site is it is not 1000 successful cases for each NOC but merely their checking of 1000 cases, which includes rejected ones too!!!
