I changed the letter a little bit and sent it:

Dear Minister,
We, applicants of the 2014 Canadian Experience Class program prior to the new Express Entry system, would like you to be aware of a situation that is affecting around 5000 people. Most of us are living in different cities along Canada and struggling to know what our condition in this country is going to be. You will receive the same letter from many applicants in the next days because we all decided to send you this email.

We applied through the Canadian Experience Class stream in 2014, by that time CIC had an estimated processing time of 12 months, now the official processing time has increased to 14 months, but most of the applicants have already been waiting longer. After contacting different MP´s who contacted CIC themselves, we got to know that this time has actually increased to 20 months but is not updated in their web page yet. As per the trends we are afraid the waiting time is going to keep growing indefinitely.

MP´s found out that the reason for this delay is that CIC has almost all their resources working in Express Entry, which has priority over our old system applications. We understand that becoming a Permanent Resident of Canada is a privilege, however we find that discriminating our previous applications in favor of the later Express Entry is unfair to all the applicants and we cannot think in any reason for this other than trying to make look Express Entry as a success.

As you can imagine, this situation is causing a lot uncertainty in the life of many people that has invest so much time and money in pursuing the Permanent Residecy, students and workers that have already been adapted and are contributing to life in Canada. Some have lost their work permits and some had to leave the country and wait in the limbo of not knowing if or when they could be able to come back. Seeing the effects CIC way of handling this situation is causing, we honestly cannot think of Express Entry as a success.

We respectfully request you to do what is in your hand to make CIC work in 2014 Canadian Expericence Class applications with proper resources in order to clear the unfair backlog of applications.

Thank you so much in advance for your understanding and consideration.

Sincerely,
