FSW WORLDWIDE

[Santaclause]

Guys, can we expect IRCC to finalize and issue PPR by summer 2022? My AOR is May 2020, FSW-O. Desperately need this!

 

[Jaspreet13]

if they have finalized the applications then why not issues pprs now that everything is opened

I'm actually curious to see what will happen after the India flight ban is lifted today.

There was a document saying IRCC stop issuing COPR because some COPR holders travelled to Canada against the travel restrictions. As far as i understand, COPR holders can enter Canada without being vaccinated (correct me if i'm wrong). Hence, confirming these people are Covid-free is the way to "protect Canada from Covid". Now that they lifted the India flight ban while they figure out a way to make sure all travellers from India have valid covid test report.

I didn't think the flight ban with one single country has any impacts on FSW, but what if they are correlated? Majority of Express Entry applicants are Indians according to figures from previous years.

This is just my theory, let's see if IRCC will prove me wrong lol.

This will have zero effect. If you think logically based on IRCC's actions, they want to meet this year's target by issuing eCOPR's to CEC candidates, most of them are getting COPR's in 3-4 months so unless they get a new mandate to start finalizing pending outland applications, nothing will change and they are moving very slow on expired COPR holders. So our benevolent Marco Cappucino has to instruct visa offices to start processing FSW applications at full capacity, until then we cannot expect anything.

And theoretically how would I convince an officer of the opposite of the truth?

You need to find a good reason to go back to school and explain that in an LOE. You're probably not gonna get a study permit if you're applying to a random program at a random school. However, if you're applying to a program that is relevant to your profession then you could explain that after spending some years in industry you felt the need for acquiring advanced theoretical knowledge in your area to advance your career when you're back home.

Do you have any idea about medical insurance for international student's spouse and dependent child? I know for students, medicals are covered under the tuition fee. But any idea about their dependent child and their spouse who is on a work permit?

No idea mate sorry. If you're already a student your school probably has services to give you an answer.

Hello guys !

Hope your are all doing well !

As of this week, Canada has achieved its goal of 80% fully vaccinated eligible population, provinces are opened and the elections are over. There is not one single reason why the ALL PROGRAM draws will not resume this week, not October, nor November, nor December, this week.

If they will continue with the CEC invitation again, or even delaying it a week like they did it last time, I sincerely believe that they are making changes to the FSW program and we will see those changes by the beginning of next year. This year is freaking done.

It breaks my heart, but this is the reality of the situation that I currently see.

There are n number of factors... What if the Flight denies?




Find out if you can travel to Canada - Foreign national - non-U.S. - Approved permanent resident not yet in Canada
You indicated that you are:

• a foreign national
• not coming from the United States
• an approved permanent resident not yet in Canada

Based on your answers, you will likely be allowed; however, the final determination will be made by a government official at the port of entry.
You must be coming to Canada to settle permanently.
What you need to do next

• bring a valid confirmation of permanent residence (CoPR) document
• You must meet testing and quarantine requirements. Use the checklist for your method of entry:
  • Entering Canada requirements checklist

If your CoPR has expired, or is expiring

• Approved permanent resident applicants with expired or expiring documents
• To withdraw your application

This answer does not guarantee entry into Canada

• You must have no signs or symptoms of COVID-19 to enter.
• Final determination regarding entry and quarantine is made by a government representative at the port of entry based on the information presented to them at the time of entry into Canada.
• You must meet the entry requirements under the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act and provide appropriate travel and immigration documentation; find out if you need a visitor visa or an Electronic Travel Authorization (eTA)
• You won’t be allowed to board a flight to Canada if you don’t meet the flight requirements.
• Failure to comply with the COVID-19 Emergency order is an offence under the Quarantine Act and could lead to imprisonment and/or fines.

Yea, i know. We won't know until we see something. My theory is just one of the many speculations we had till now.

Anyway, i hope we will see some surprises this week.

Yes, there are many factors involved. But what i meant is that many people we got copr will immediately try to enter Canada, that's why i'm guessing if IRCC finally do something when this one last travel restriction is lifted today.

GUNTER: Liberals to make immigration to Canada much easier
nope not economic immigrants hehe

The Trudeau Liberals are planning to remove nearly all grounds the Immigration department uses to exclude applicants, the Toronto Sun has learned.
It has been the Trudeau government’s goal since 2020 to increase Canada’s intake of immigrants and refugees by nearly one-third to 400,000 annually.

How they plan to achieve this elevated level is outlined in an internal draft document sent to immigration and refugee judges — documents that have been exclusively shared with the Sun.

In an email sent to staff and adjudicators on Sept. 20, Richard Wex, the Liberals’ appointee as chairperson and chief executive officer of the Immigration and Refugee Board of Canada, laid out a massive expansion of the reasons immigrants can be allowed to enter and stay in Canada.

Under the new guidelines, contained in a document marked “Draft” and covered by solicitor-client privilege, civil service officers who do an initial screening of immigration and refugee claims, plus the immigration and refugee judges who hear appeals of the officers’ decisions, are instructed to accept any applicant who has an “intersectional” claim.

Intersectionality is defined as two or more of “race, religion, indigeneity, political beliefs, socioeconomic status, age, sexual orientation, culture, disability, or immigration status,” that “impact an individual’s lived experience of discrimination, marginalization or oppression.”

No longer will claimants need to prove, for instance, that they face torture or death if forced to return to their home countries. Nor will they have to satisfy the UN’s definition of a “refugee.”

Now, if they merely claim they have been discriminated against or persecuted for being poor and old, or Indigenous and holding political views targeted by some developing country’s strongman, in the Liberals come.

One of the principal tasks of the immigration officers and judges is to determine whether a claimant is telling the truth.

The Trudeau Liberals have that covered, too.

Chairperson Wex instructs his staff and judges to remember that trauma — whether physical or emotional — can cause people to recollect information or incidents incorrectly. Therefore, if applicants provide evidence that turns out to be false, it may not be because they’re lying.

Rather they might just be misremembering due to the lingering stress caused by a trauma. Don’t exclude them.

Staff and adjudicators are instructed to give applicants the benefit of the doubt. Unless the officer or judge involved has incontrovertible proof an applicant is lying, the claimant should be admitted. His or her claims of discrimination are to be accepted by default and his or her application approved.

Their falsehoods might just be the side effect of some traumatic experience that is impeding the applicant’s ability to provide evidence that would benefit him or her.

Wex describes a traumatic event as one that elicits “intense feelings of fear, terror, helplessness, hopelessness, and despair” that is perceived “as a threat to the person’s survival.”

Adjudicators must employ “a ‘Do No Harm’ approach” during hearings, to lead with “compassion, cultural humility, and patience in order to avoid retraumatization” of an applicant.

These new rules render examining refugees’ claims pointless.

Adjudicators, essentially, must now say yes to everyone who makes it to Canadian soil and claims (not proves, merely claims) they are a victim of two more of a broad range of abuses — some invisible and mild.

Already, 22 of just over 300 adjudicators already admit 100% of the claimants appearing before them. (The median acceptance rate across the country is about 70%.)

Accepting 100% of claims is an impossibly high rate, unless these 22 judges are deliberately looking to admit anyone and everyone. Most of the 22 are Liberal appointees. Now it would appear they are to be the models for all the other adjudicators.

Claimants, on average, wait two years for their cases to be heard. During that time, their medical, dental, and even internet is paid for by taxpayers. Sometimes, their housing and food, too.

And now there’s almost no chance they will be sent out of Canada because what applicant and his or her immigration lawyer isn’t going to be capable of thinking up some “interconnectedness” of discriminations or “trauma,” or both?

That’s how the Liberals intend to turn 300,000 or so immigrants a year into 400,000 almost overnight.

Just get rid of all the rules and — presto — a boom in newcomers.

How long do you think it will take for word to get out around the world that Canada, which is already one of the countries most open to immigration, is removing all barriers and throwing the doors open wide?

Hahaha. Though the article written is extremely right wing, I cant help but agree that might be the liberal government priority. Immigration with eligibility,criminality and security over. Fast tracked immigration for refugee. Someone here pointed out that the way forward for success to immigrate will be applying to Canada as a refugee. Best part, if the article true is there is an assortment of reasons to choose from in your application and you don't even have to prove it.
