We have same analysis yogi44. I think August applicants can still make it for NOC 2173. Lets keep our hopes high along with prayers and positive outlook.yogi44 said:Hi All..i am 15th AUG applicant, NOC 2173. I have come through a post in the FSW2014 thread that 2173 would have been capped by 08 AUG 2014. I think this prediction is lilttle exaggerated coz every week when CIC was updating the caps the averge number of 2173 applications were around 50. If we look at the cap update upto 3 july applications..its count was around 425. so by going this flow till august there are 8-9 weeks left and each week might have 50-60 2173 applications so 9x60 = 540 + 425 = 965 applications or we can round off it upto 1000. So my point is 2173 can not be capped till the start of AUG.
