Hello Dream can & Farhan:
I have reached a conclusion that the only way forward for CIC is to stop immigration temporarily. I believe they have around a million or probably more applications in backlog in skilled category around the world. They need an average 150,000-165,000 skilled immigrants per year. If we assume that immigration is caped for the time being, and CIC brings in more staff, which starts processsing the baklog at full throtle, they can get rid of entire backlog in 4-5-6 years while taking in the required number of immigrants per year from the Pre Feb 27, 2008 lot.
Do u guys have any idea what the problem is? CIC introduced the Simplified Application Process with the intention to reduce backlog. But after Feb 27, 2008, Fast Track superceded Simplified Application rules. The strategy simply failed. CIC was bombarded with tons of new applications, and they simply bocked down in processing new ones. The old applicants could not be serverd, and Simplified Application candidates became the victims too. The advantage went to fast track people. CIC is doing it all with out any planning, vision to reduce back log problem.
As a matter of fact, all pre Feb 27 2008 applicants were deceived. There is a dichotomy in what they say and what they do. They are telling us: No False Documents, No Lies or you application would be rejected. Tell me what the hell they are doing.
