Why I do not see it on the official website. Is it true or false?

 

[gtaark]

WTF...these immigration people are becoming more strict day by day..

 

[visaexpert]

This web says that Occupation list is changes and They have removed some NOC from 38 Demand List and make it to 29 NOC list listed in below paragraph.

I think, It is true but It has very disappointed us.

CAP!! A maximum of 20 000 Federal Skilled Worker applications,without an offer of arranged employment, will be considered for processing each year.Within the 20 000 cap, a maximum of 1 000 Federal Skilled Worker applications per National Occupation Classification(NOC) code will be considered for processing each year.

Well...looks like the list is almost up for a change....Though it seems to be an internal instruction but looks authentic.

For the unique purpose of calculating the caps, the first year will begin on June 26, 2010, and end on June 30, 2011. Subsequent years will be calculated from July 1st to June 30th, unless otherwise indicated in a future Ministerial Instruction.


For More Clarity...refer to this PDF.... http://canadagazette.gc.ca/rp-pr/p1/2010/2010-06-26/pdf/g1-14426.pdf

Though CIC website is updated late but this looks like a notice....!But as mentioned in the document, it stands valid from today that is June, 26th 2010.

Awaiting for more view on it.

 

[saki]

Yes its almost it guys its changed as of canadian gazette and i guess cic will announce it soon as well maybe on monday next week. If this was not true then it wouldnt be in the canadian gazette.

So the list is change from 26th June so anyone applying after this date needs to meet the new list and all applications received before 26th June will have no change.

Cheers
