Ray of hope - FSW - 1

Well welcoming new immigrants doesnt necessarily means sending invites... It has to mean actual landings of immigrants which regardless of ita's can start only after travel restrictions are lifted...
As far as i know canadian economy is fueled by immigrants...as of now there are empty houses on sale fow law rates due to no influx of outland immigrants... In some instances houses are available rent free for 2-3 months...students are starting to opt for partial studies online as it relieves them of 2000 dollars mendatory quarantine and more... So unless they want to completely jam the cogs of otherwise good going economy they wont stop immigrations pathways for months and months...in case of outland candidates they already have a gap of 3 4 months from last year cec only spree...

I'm scared that when they do open doors for us... There will be a massive influx of newcomers and unemployment will skyrocket. Won't be able to find a job for months.

There can some increased competitions... But with more influx the economy needs increase...more food..more educations.
More everyday stuff..which inturn gives rise to employment... People land there and buy houses which creates a need for more houses..and so on

Correct. We don’t know when travel will resume. The travel restrictions are getting stricter as Canadians are fed up with some people (including government officials) trying to bend the rules and still travel for non essential reasons. Even Canadian snow birds are facing the the same hefty quarantine fees in order to return home.



so until everyone’s vaccinated (by everyone, I mean those who want to get vaccinated), Canada might not be relaxing travel restrictions any time this year. I’d be happy to be proven wrong though.



by doing the last CEC draw, Canada is hitting multiple birds with one stone: 1) meeting their immigration target, 2) getting a huge windfall of application fees (in light of the money they won’t be getting back from CERB), 3) not adding people who may want to travel to Canada (EE applicants who may be approved this year and want to settle), 4) easier to verify EE applications (since IRCC only needs to verify Canadian work experience and language exams).

Canadian economy doesn't seem like it's doing well. Resorting to mass ITAs for RPRF isn't a good sign.

It will take a miracle to vaccinate everyone by end of Sep'21 given the current rate. Despite what government is saying it would take a lot of things to go right to acheive this. Is it possible .. yes? Is it probable .. I would say very low probability. For sake of everyone though I hope I'm wrong.

It's fairly probable. US will start to export vaccine at some point, and Canada will be the top of the list. Vaccination will be very slow, then happen all of a sudden.

Maybe toronto house market, cause everywhere else the house market is a bidding war! Not enough houses for sale.

And at this point, the Feds are aiming to have that vaccination goal met by September. I hope it remains that way.

I would hate to get into the CEC vs FSW debate. But all these people worrying about "it is bad for Canada's future".

May I please request you to fix your country's future first? before worrying about some foreign country.

My heart goes to people who are loosing points because of age. Pandemic is to blame NOT cec candidates who are working for their scores just like you.

Anyway not gonna indulge into this discussion anymore.

Bro, nobody is blaming CEC for anything so please dont bring that rubbish here. You're trying to cause confusion and unnecessary arguments and you know it.

exactly. "welcoming skilled workers from abroad when travel resumes"
this doesn't mean they wont send ITAs until the travel restrictions resume.

Thank you! Yes, I know I have 1 year as required, but since I claimed 2 years I’m worried for this part... that 1 freaking day

Well, in total you still have more than two years. Anyway, if I'm not mistaken there is no difference between one year and two year. You get more points for three.

What do you mean with "enter in drones"?

The ones that couldn’t enter before due to low IELTS and other factors. But this 75 CRS will motivate them.

It's going to be a humongous task, but I don't agree it will take a miracle to achieve the target. The vaccinations are going to ramp up in the next few weeks and they are going to ramp up fast. They have ordered enough vaccines and they have the infrastructure to administer the vaccines at this scale, so we should continue to be optimistic . The current sluggish rates are due to unforeseen supply chain issues, which seem to be largely behind us. I continue to believe there will be large scale vaccinations of the general population in Summer, with steeply decreasing deaths and hospitalizations, which only bodes well for outlanders. No need to despair, there is light at the end of the tunnel!

how long does it take to get CLB5 in french if I dedicate all my time to it with necessary external tutoring/training etc? Think 24/7.

For clb 5 you can reach in probably 4-6 months.... Then another 2 months for clb 7 in 1 or 2 of the modules....then another 3 4 months for clb 7 in all to get that bonus 50

Damnnn.. This insane stuff.. Talk about being unpredictable, whew hard to fathom 27000 ITA's in a single draw that's just crazy numbers.. Great stuff for the CEC applicants who might have been struggling due to this pandemic and bam a relief from up above that every single one of them do not have to worry about being on a temporary status.. Congrats my dear friends, this is definitely some very happy news and cause for celebration - drink up, get some takeaways, dance the night away!

I have to wonder what is the intention behind IRCC conducting such a massive draw, they could've carried on taking 5k draws (CEC only) bi weekly as was the case previously. I mean that is way better than taking 27k people at one time and suspending the program for 3 - 4 months when they could've accomplished the same task over the same period while reducing the burden of processing this huge backlog of application at once; it makes no sense for them to work in that fashion. Does it mean that FSW draws will resume within a month? Will it be that they don't envision any more draws for this years and pause the draw until further notice? Nobody knows and this is the most frustrating part of the process - the waiting game - what is IRCC going to pull of next.. Untill next month, let the speculations flow - The games have BEGUNNN..

They will get alot of money in from visa fees quickly by doing it this way. I wonder if the financial injection was a motivating factor?
