News Release – Minister Kenney outlines vision of a fast and flexible immigration system
Toronto, March 1, 2012 - In a keynote address to the National Metropolis Conference today, Citizenship, Immigration and Multiculturalism Minister Jason Kenney outlined his vision for a faster, more responsive immigration system that better meets Canada’s economic needs.
“Immigration is playing an increasingly important role in our economy and we need a system that does a better job of attracting the people who have the skills that are in demand and getting them here quickly,” said Minister Kenney. “We have made some great strides towards an immigration system that is fast and flexible, but know that there is more work to do.”
In his speech, the Minister highlighted recent changes to the Federal Skilled Worker Program, where current applicants must have experience in one of 29 occupations in demand, or have a job offer in Canada.
He also noted the growing success of the Canadian Experience Class, which allows certain foreign students and temporary foreign workers to translate their Canadian work and education experience into permanent residence. And he lauded the growth of provincial and territorial nominee programs, noting the role they have played in spreading the benefits of immigration across the country and addressing long-term regional labour needs.
While recognizing these improvements, the Minister indicated that more challenges lie ahead in seeing his vision realized. He noted, for instance, that the current points system used to assess federal skilled worker applicants needs to be more flexible and intelligent. It should place greater emphasis on the importance of language, he said, while recognizing that the language ability needed to successfully integrate in Canada is different for a doctor as opposed to a welder. It should also place greater emphasis on younger workers with high quality credentials that can be recognized quickly.
The Minister pledged to do a better job of attracting entrepreneurs and investors to Canada, noting that we lag behind the U.S., where half of the top 50 venture-capital backed companies are founded by immigrants.
While noting progress to date, he also promised to do more to reduce the legacy of backlogs, where there are wait times of seven years or longer in some categories. :-*
“It makes no sense to tell people ‘apply now, but put your life on hold for a few years before we’ll even let you know if you qualify, :-*'” said the Minister. “I will continue to make changes to create a faster, 8) more flexible immigration system. Canadians need and deserve a system that boldly puts Canada’s best interests first.”
Hope this STARTS NOW. Got ds from cic website .

Mandie good morning, pls what is defferent between we received your app and started processing you app and we reviewed your app and we started processing your app.
Hi mates,

What I have seen is 'we reviewed your application...and sent you a letter on....' note there is no processing added to this line.jelili said:
'we reviewed your application and started processing...' this line preceeds MR or vice versa.
The difference therefore is that the former just talks about a letter being sent (PER via e-mail, the first stage of the process) and the latter indicates they are actually 'doing something' on ur file which will lead to MR....

Oh my goshFJ6 said:
, I was going to laugh if this was not a thought provoking question!Your score of 1st language or second language actually depends on the individual and not on his/her country of nationality or residence. In the forms, they ask specifically for which you fall into: English or French and the scores are based on evidence(which, my friend comes in the form of your IELTS general test scores or the equivalent in french).
Did this help?
It depends on which language u can speak fluently. Even though Nigeria is Anglophone (official langauge being English), there are some people who can speak French fluently (like Egrace of QSW) thus will take the French test instead of English. So it is up to the individual to decide. Hope you get my point?FJ6 said:
