কানাডায় দক্ষ শ্রমিকদের জন্য অভিবাসন নিয়মনীতি সহজতর করার প্রক্রিয়া চলছে। তেল, গ্যাস ও নির্মাণ শিল্পে শ্রমিকের ঘাটতি পূরণে এ ঘোষণা দিয়েছে সরকার। এ লক্ষ্যে ইমিগ্রেশন মন্ত্রণালয় দক্ষ শ্রমিক কর্মসূচিকে ঢেলে সাজানোর উদ্যোগ নিয়েছে। নাগরিকত্ব, অভিবাসন ও বহুসংস্কৃতি বিষয়ক মন্ত্রী জেসন কেনি সরকারের এই উদ্যোগের কথা জানিয়ে বলেছেন, অভ্যন্তরীণ ও আন্তর্জাতিক বিনিয়োগ দিন দিন বেড়ে চলেছে। ফলে কানাডার শ্রমবাজারে, বিশেষত তেল, খনিজ ও নির্মাণ শিল্পে দক্ষ শ্রমিক ও পেশাজীবীর যে ঘাটতির সৃষ্টি হয়েছে, তা কাটিয়ে উঠতে কার্যকর একটি ব্যবস্থা গড়ে তোলা হচ্ছে। তিনি আরও বলেন, এ বছরের শেষদিকে দক্ষ শ্রমিকদের আকৃষ্ট করতে বিশেষ একটি কর্মসূচি গ্রহণ করা হবে। এতে দেশে অস্থায়ী শ্রমিক অভিবাসনের সংখ্যা ক্রমশই কমে আসবে। নতুন কর্মসূচিতে অভিবাসন ব্যবস্থায় নিয়োগদাতাদের ভূমিকা আরও বাড়বে, যা তাদের অপরিহার্য চাকরির ক্ষেত্রে শূন্যতা পূরণে দ্রুত পদক্ষেপ নেয়ার সুযোগ করে দেবে।

জেসন কেনি বলেন, অতীতে দেখা গেছে, কঠোর নিয়মকানুনের ফলে দক্ষ শ্রমিকদের কানাডার অর্থনৈতিক কর্মসূচিতে অংশগ্রহণ করা কার্যত দুঃসাধ্য ছিল। স্নাতকোত্তর ডিগ্রির পাশাপাশি ইংরেজি অথবা ফরাসি ভাষায় অত্যন্ত দক্ষ হওয়ার শর্ত জুড়ে দেয়ার অর্থই হলো, দক্ষ শ্রমিকেরা যেন কানাডায় আসতে না পারে। তিনি জানান, নতুন কর্মসূচিটি কানাডার নিয়োগদাতাদের নিয়োগ প্রস্তাবের ভিত্তিতে তৈরি হবে। দক্ষ শ্রমিকদের অভিবাসনের জন্য প্রয়োজন হবে দক্ষতা ও অভিজ্ঞতার প্রমাণপত্র, যা কানাডিয়ান সনদ ও মানের সমতুল্য হবে। এছাড়া নতুন ব্যবস্থায় ইংরেজি ও ফরাসি ভাষায় অনর্গল কথা বলতে পারার মতো কঠিন শর্ত না থাকলেও ভাষার ক্ষেত্রে কিছু যোগ্যতার প্রয়োজন পড়বে।

The number of Federal Skilled Worker applications approved by the Singapore visa office has exceeded the visa target we have been allocated for this category under Canada's annual Immigration Levels Plan. We are carefully managing the finalization of applications to ensure that the applicants with skills and work experience that meet current labour market needs - i.e. those who applied under the most recent set of Ministerial Instructions - are issued visas on a priority basis. For applications received under earlier sets of Ministerial Instructions, we will proceed with the final steps of processing (e.g. medical examination, statutory checks) only when we have sufficient target space to be able to issue visas in the coming year.

A raw question about this matter, Now they are very careful to manage the number due to Canada's annual Immigration Levels Plan; so are they (SGVO) committed to grant VISA for all those application they (SGVO) already approved? I mean gradually they will give VISA to all 2 AOR (RBVO) holders? Or anything else?

Hi guy,

May I know where do you get this news from? and when do you have it? RBVO status is not approval stage with VO.

I think this is a BAD NEWS if it was issued earlier this year.
If it has been issued earliest this year and this is a trustable news that means Singapore VO already used up the visa quota for 2012 (around 1700 VISA for 2012). they will process to issue MR or check up or whatever for the rest of MI1, MI2 applicant after they receive the new quota for VISA in next year. on the other words, they will stop issue MR for MI1, MI2 applicants who have RBVO in this year and wait until next year? that is what I understand from the news?

Can I have asource of the news?

Thank and My Best Regards,

....ok Here is the reply I get from Singapore Visa Office regarding my inquiry which I send on April 24.. there was a line in my e-cas " we sent you a letter on March20,2010" . So I asked about the letter whether I missed it or they didn't send . I'm pasting the exact e-mail here..

Dear Ms XXXXX,

Thank you for your enquiry to the Immigration Section of the High Commission of Canada in Singapore.

We are pleased to advise you that your application has been assessed, and that you have been determined to meet the eligibility requirements of the Federal Skilled Worker category.

As you may already be aware, changes to immigration law in 2008 allow Citizenship & Immigration Canada (CIC) to set, through Ministerial Instructions, the number and type of applications considered for processing each year, and the order in which these applications will be processed. You may wish to consult this page for more information on the Ministerial Instructions: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/department/mi/index.asp

Your application was determined to be eligible under the first set of Ministerial Instructions, as it was received between February 28, 2008 and June 25, 2010. A second set of Ministerial Instructions applies to applications received between June 26, 2010 and June 30, 2011. Processing priority is now being given to Skilled Worker applications that meet the eligibility criteria in a third set of Ministerial Instructions, for applications received from July 1, 2011.

The number of Federal Skilled Worker applications approved by the Singapore visa office has exceeded the visa target we have been allocated for this category under Canada's annual Immigration Levels Plan. We are carefully managing the finalization of applications to ensure that the applicants with skills and work experience that meet current labour market needs - i.e. those who applied under the most recent set of Ministerial Instructions - are issued visas on a priority basis. For applications received under earlier sets of Ministerial Instructions, we will proceed with the final steps of processing (e.g. medical examination, statutory checks) only when we have sufficient target space to be able to issue visas in the coming year.

Applications received under the first set of Ministerial instructions will be processed to finalization on the basis of when they were received. Applicants who applied earlier (from February 27, 2008 onward) will be contacted before those who applied later (up to June 25, 2010). When we are ready to continue processing your application, we will contact you with instructions. Until then, the only information you are required to provide to our office is:

- Change of address or contact information, including email address

- Marriage, birth, or death in the applicant's immediate family

- Request to withdraw the application and refund the application fees

- Submission of an Arranged Employment Opinion approved by Human Resources and Social Development Canada

- Change to the applicant's representation (to engage, change, or revoke a paid representative, the form IMM 5476 Use of a Representative must be completed and signed by the applicant, then sent to our office)



In all correspondence with our office, remember to quote the applicant's file number, full name and date of birth.


We hope this information will be of assistance.

Sincerely,

[hope2011]

Where does this news come from? Seems pretty unreliable, considering the backlog number is huge.
