Wow, hardcore stuff there
Presumably those who have already applied won't be impacted?

Thanks for sharing

Now they are matching the supply with the demand.

does this mean they will start capping now even for the ones who already have applied?

No, please read the new release carefully. This cap is only for applications received between November 9, 2013, to October 31, 2014.

Feel so sorry for all those who had plans to apply for CEC soon. Seems so underhanded not giving any lead time.

My apology, I had a bit of a freak out and read only what i wanted to read.

WOW, my application was received TODAY, really hope to get AOR now!

I was somewhat surprised that food service workers were ever eligible for skilled migration, but in any case it does seem harsh to dash the hopes of those who were about to apply.

It is in-line with the general trend, immigration stream reduced every year. First FSW backlog slash, new rules, stop of certain family sponsorships, now this..Canada is slowly closing its immigration programs.

They are not IMPROVING it, they are killing people's dreams... My application was received today, if I don't get an AOR I am screwed... I had a feeling about this and even told my husband we should apply asap...
