I'm not too familiar with FSWs who are inland, but maybe they are assuming that if you're on a work permit here you'll eventually be able to apply under CEC, same thing if you're a student.

Shortage of CEC people...Isn't that a good sign for FSW? They'll run out of people in Canada at some point.
If CEC is done, they will go for temporary residents. The last preference would be for FSWs. Considering that there are 600,000 international students already in Canada, it'll take a really long time to resume FSW draws. They will be able to achieve their targets for another 2 years with only temporary residents who're already in Canada.

That is why they need to do research and consider real factors instead of making policies on assumptions.

I decided to quit, so disappointed right now.
I'm leaving Canada in no time.
I am so sorry to hear that bro! I wish you all the best for your future!

Peace!

Request to all FSW inland applicants. Please raise a complaint/suggestion about coming up with temporary policy for FSW inland applicants who are not impacted by travel restrictions. There will be no positive outcome till we do some efforts in making them aware of our expectations and contribution to the Canadian economy. We do deserve a chance. Stand United!!

I did mine.

I am an FSW-inland applicant; I am in LIMBO for 6 months, now I am eligible for CEC, or the new stream just announced. Seems FSW inland is not taking me anywhere. Yesterday I had a call to IRCC and eligibility not yet started ( Montreal VO). I am thinking to withdraw my application and go with CEC or either of these streams.

Why? What's your situation?
I have stayed in Canada for 10 years, study and work.
Because my Canadian work experience was in 2015, I am not eligible for CEC.
Because I have used my PGWP in 2015, I am then not eligible for this new stream.
I got CRS 487 but only eligible for FSW, which did not happen and guess will not happen in a short time.
I completed my master's in Dec. 2020 and now on a visitor visa. Can't work, hopeless.
Well played on this one Canada and IRCC. I am leaving.
Good luck to the rest of you.

That's very unfortunate, i suppose you are one of the edge cases where your Canadian experience is not current enough to apply under CEC.

However, you still have a good score and you'll almost be certain to be invited in the next all program draw.

It just sucks you may have to leave Canada and return to your home country and apply from there.

Don't lose hope, i know going may seem like the the end but it won't be.

I'm starting to understand that inland FSWs are unfortunately getting swept up in the restrictions.

I agree there should be a program for you guys.

Seriously Dude!! IRCC just fucked us!! Our hopes are vanished! I’m thinking of going back too. There is no point in staying here with a score of 523 and continue supporting Canadian economy with taxes n all unless we get an invitation. Our future is in Limbo!

Good Luck to everyone else who are eligible in this new program.

Peace ✌

That's why I said well played Canada and IRCC.
We contributed a lot and got nothing in return.
What a fair world

I definitely feel you there. You’ve spent a lot of money and effort in Canada. However, focus on the bright side, your score is excellent and they about to start processing their backlogged applications. You and I have hope somewhere in between. I know exactly how you feel, but I’m trying to focus on the good things.

It seems that there are more people in a similar situation like me than I thought.
