Buddy do you know when cap is reached for noc 1122 ? According to cic website it's 22nd aug 2011 but there some people who got mail from cio that cap reached on 8 th july. What you think ???
dont be guided by the 22nd august by cic cos it took them a while to update the cap, while some pple thought the cap was still open but on reality, its been full since first week in july (my assumption).
reasons below:
1. remember that 1122 was the first cap to be reached somewhere around aug or sept last year while some completed files were returned.
2. now imagine how many files that were returned (2010) due to cap full+in-complete files.
3. let's assume 1122 cap was closed in sep 2010, nov 2010-july 2011, thats 9 months right there of "NO INTAKE FOR 1122"
4. now,combine all applicants that lost out last year+new applicants-500 reduction (against initial 1000 intake) in 2011 applications
5. by my assumption, i think the cap got filled up within the first week (i might be wrong tho), all other 1122 that submitted after first week and got PER must have been due to file sharing/transfer from one cic immigration staffs and as well for example, if 300 of the first 500 were in-complete, they have to make up with other files depending on the date it was received.
6. lastly,imagine many 1122 applicants worldwide aiming to submit early and beat the cap, many of them are not on this forum.
i speak for myself as i can be proven wrong but based on the above, i think its the first week.
