guys,please read the below we may understand what's happening...

The Centralized Intake Office, at the Case Processing Center in Sydney, Nova Scotia has a mandate to process all new applications for Permanent Residence Status under the Federal Skilled Worker Program.


From an intake point of view, the mandate of this office causes a rather significant number of applications to flow into the CIO rendering the capacity of the CIO under constant pressure.


In light of the abovementioned, the assessment of files submitted under Category 1 (claims of possession of a minimum of one year of fulltime paid experience in one of the occupations designated by the minister), is performed by officers with all due caution and scrutiny. The officers' mandate is to ensure that only utterly complete applications are placed in the processing queue and recommended for further processing by “a” visa post (Embassy, High Commission or Consulate).


The above described level of scrutiny practiced on the part of visa officers at the CIO will now be amplified as a result of the reduction of the total number of application in the occupation groups that are eligible for submission, as more applicants will try to submit their files “in time” before the cap hits, whether the file is utterly complete or not. On July 1st, 2011 the minister of citizenship, Immigration and Multiculturalism announced that the total number of applications to be processed under each occupation group is 500, with a total quota of 10,000 applications to be processed between July 1, 2011 and June 30, 2012.


Applications that are not in full conformity with R (10) and R (11) will be returned to the applicant pursuant to R (12).


Applications that are complete in terms of components (Supporting documents, forms and fees) but not in terms of criteria compliance, will be placed in the processing queue of the CIO and will then be refused.


The remedy
1. Understanding the meaning of the Occupation Groups.

It is of the essence that applicants understand the spirit of each NOC group. Mere titles and position summaries are insufficient. The applicant must firstly ensure that S/He did in fact perform a substantial number of the duties described in the NOC occupational structure, they need to ensure that they can satisfactorily document their experience.


Bulking up the work experience section of the application package with material that is mostly irrelevant to the essence of the claimed NOC group, will not cause the officer to overlook the lack of presence of the proper substantiation of the main duties claimed on the application forms.


Simply put, you must have performed the duties of the NOC group you are claiming membership of and you must be able to extensively document those particular duties.




2. Understanding the quota at the CIO, the timelines of the IELTS and the TEF examination centers

There is no application without the conclusive evidence of language ability.
Applying to the CIO requires very precise and comprehensive planning and coordination. An Applicant must firstly understand the testing times for the IELTS and the TEF examinations, keep a very close eye on the cap of applications in the same group the applicant is applying under that have been received by the CIO, the time required to procure the remainder of the supporting documentation for the file.


3. Ensuring that all regulatory components are present in the application package prior to dispatch in order to circumvent the application being returned due to component deficiency

Applications complete in terms of components yet refused due to lack of compliance with the definition of a Skilled Worker (i.e. refused due to points deficiency or NOC group lack of true membership):


Applications received at the CIO face one of three potential outcomes:


- Positive Final Assessment (Approved, file will be screened for inadmissibility at a visa post)


- Returned to applicant due to missing components (not refused, the cost recover fees paid will be refunded)


- Refused due to deficient points or lack of satisfactory documentation that substantiates membership in the claimed eligible NOC group (an assessment of the point will have taken place, and the processing fees are non refundable)
In light of the abovementioned, the assessment of files submitted under Category 1 (claims of possession of a minimum of one year of fulltime paid experience in one of the occupations designated by the minister), is performed by officers with all due caution and scrutiny. The officers' mandate is to ensure that only utterly complete applications are placed in the processing queue and recommended for further processing by “a” visa post (Embassy, High Commission or Consulate).

Federal Skilled Workers
Applications for Permanent Residence status in Canada

The new set of Ministerial Instructions
July 1, 2011 until June 30, 2012





On June 25, 2011, Vol. 145, No. 26 of the Canada Gazette published the ministerial instructions that will go in to force on the first day of July of 2011.

The ministerial instructions will affect the following three categories of applications for permanent residence status under the IRPA:

- Federal Skilled Workers
- Federal Investors (a new cap has been set for 700 files / year)
- Federal Entrepreneurs (the program is currently suspended until further notice)

This report will address changes to the Federal Skilled Worker program and not the Entrepreneur and the Investor.

The current list of occupations permits 29 types of experiences to submit applications to the Centralized Intake Office. Applicants who can demonstrate a minimum of one year of experience in one of the occupations and who manages to accumulate a sufficient number of points on the Federal Skilled Workers selection grid may be recommended for further processing by ?a? visa post.

The new set of instructions maintained the same list of 29 occupations without change. The changes however all pertain to the intake.

The total number of applications that will be processed under each category will be limited to 500 applications only. The maximum number of applications processed without an arranged employment offer is now affixed at 10,000 applications.

Analysis:
Advantages and disadvantages of these instructions

Advantages:

- The new cap on occupations will surely reduce processing times on both the CIO and the visa posts levels


- The new instructions will surely reduce the backlog of old applications for permanent residence status that are currently being processed at visa posts, as more resources will now be available as a result of reduced applications intake


- The fact that CIC has maintained the list of occupations it published on the 26 day of June of 2010 is a clear indicator that those occupations are still critically in demand in the labour market.


- The new ministerial instructions form an indicator that the lists of occupation will most likely change on the 30th day of June of 2012, with the exception of some strategic occupations.







Disadvantages:

- Greater competition on the 500 applications allocation, which will render the initial screening of the application rather lengthy (on the CIO level) as more applicants will try to submit their applications as fast as possible to circumvent returns of applications due to the cap.


- An overall deterrent for individuals who require time to prepare a file that is compliant with sections 10, 11 and 12 of the regulations


- More scrutiny on the level of the CIO in screening applications is expected. Any component deficiencies, regardless of their magnitude will most probably render the application ineligible for processing




Applicants are encouraged to systematically plan for the process of submitting their applications.

Applicants are also advised to commence the third party examinations to establish their proficiency in the English / French languages prior to expending any efforts in collecting supporting documentation for their files.

Caution is also advised when preparing file for submission as any mistakes or deficiencies will render the file ineligible for processing and the time required by the CIO to return the non compliant application and the time required by the applicant to fix the file will probably be long enough to render the corrected submission rather too risky to be submitted on account of the CAP approach.
