I haven't seen any changes on the points for age, which is disappointing.

While I agree that the reason for EE is to get young people who are will be economically active for long time, they do required also highly skilled people and highly skilled people will be older people with much more experience...

LMIA was one way that older and more experienced people could get PRs, now that's effectively out of the window as no one is going to bother getting a LMIA for a measly 50 points...
I agree. PhD max 140 points < Bachelor (120 points) + 30 points (for a degree from a Canadian Univ.). And PhDs are older -> less point due to age. Probably PhDs are not welcome in Canada :eek:

Can anyone let me know if a WP holder with permanent position can apply for PNP ? Thanks.
Be more specific,
depends on province where your work is.

Oh OK. I am in ON, working for Canadian government (full-time, permanent position). I have MS and PhD degrees, over 10 years working experience, etc. My job is in aerospace engineering field and is LMIA-exempt. Was going to apply for LMIA for 600 points, but now 50 points and I guess it does not help much. I am thinking about OINP but from what I read on their website, the employer/foreign workers category requires a pre-screen application from the employer. Does that mean the OINP is only for new workers. How's about currently working people? Not sure.

Thank you.

Have you created an EE profile yet? It sounds like you would get 440ish points. With the LMIA at 50 points, it's very likely you would get an ITA soon.

Also, what working visa do you currently have?

Dear All,
The below link may help - it is the beta version to calculate your revised CRS points (which will get revised post 19 Nov 2016) - It may give some of you the insight on the probability to get an "invitation to apply" for PR - Canada.

Hope this helped. :)

Did you see the last question: "Do you have a sibling, relative...in Canada...who are Canadian/Permanent Resident of Canada..."?

That might give points soon. Even for relative, people might get points. Any thoughts?

Logic: Why ask that question if no points are presently awarded?

Logic: That's related to FSW as it gives 5 points to help someone reach the required 67 points.

Cheers ;)
