New Rules not later than 21 December 2008?

[Classic]

Long wait for Skilled Workers applied in March 2008, for these candidates 8 months already have been passed, but, yet there is no indication for announcement and implementation of new rules. It was expected to come in Fall 2008 and limiting up to 38 occupations. My friend submitted application in Berlin at the end of Feb. 2008, Germany office, normally finalizes most of the cases in 24 months, but, these new rules seems to be a disadvantage for those whose applications normally finalize in 24 months or before this. Perhaps some other countries (whose processing time is more than 4-5 years) applicants will have advantage if they really fall in the incoming high demand professionals/skilled list (38 occupation).

Have any body knowledge/idea about expected date for commence of new rules for immigration.

No one really knows when the new rules will come out. It could be later this month, in november, it could still take months as politicians discuss in Ottawa. Likewise, no one knows what the new rules will state. Whether they will limit application through the skilled workers program to a list of high-demand occupations, or simply create a faster process for them.

People can take two courses of action: they can send in their applications "like there's nothing going on", and hope for the best; or wait until the new rules come out. Personally, I'm taking the first course, and will be sending my application shortly.

but don't pay too much attention to rumours, because they're just that. there's a lot of speculation going on (you can see it in this forum )

Is it true?

Applicants whose occupations are on this list and who meet the minimum points requirements under the Federal Skilled Worker category will be qualified for Permanent Residency. Those whose occupations are not on the list, will need to apply for Canadian Permanent Residency through the Provincial Nomination Programs (PNP).

It's just speculations now until the CIC actually posts something. It should be soon.
