Some questions about NEW FSW

[nick0791]

Hi guys:
I am new here planning move to Canada.
I have done the point system test and got 69
I have got several questions about the NEW FSW, could any one possibly help? Thanks very much.

I have noticed that the NEW FSW will accept application from 4th May 2013. And seems I need complete the application package online and post the signed barcode page and the fee to Centralized Intake Office.
My question is can I complete the application package now and post the barcode page and the fee to CIC by 4th May or I have to wait till CIC open the route, then complete the package and post it?

Thanks

If your application package arrives at CIC's offices before May 4th it will be returned to you unprocessed. Your application package must arrive May 4th or later.

Thank you very much.
As my understanding, that means I can complete the whole package, and then just wait till the very close date to 4th May.

Yes. However you can't complete the whole package now since all of the details of the application process haven't been released yet.

CIC doesn't yet have an application package for the new FSW. The one they have now is for the current applicants (job offer or phd stream). So, you need to wait until they update their application package along with the forms before you can fill them out.
Also, from reading your first post, it seemed to me that you are under the impression that you can submit the form online and that you need to send only the bar code page to CIC. That is not the case. You should fill out the form online and then print out the whole filled out form (not just the barcode page) and send everything to CIC.

Dear Namaste , Skylla ,

As you have correctly suggested , we have to be in the "wait and watch mode" till the final FSWP package is decided.
I was wondering whether we can have the pre-requisite fulfilled in advance regarding the credential assessment (which may
take considerable amount of time).

Do you have any clues on the possible recognised credential assessment organisations ?

Just so new aspiring applicants are aware, one needs to print all applications forms and send as package, if application is made outside of Canada. If applicant is inside Canada, the application process is a little different. Please follow appropriate process. Good luck with your endeavors.

No. Hasn't been announced yet.

Seems I downloaded the wrong one. I thought the application package did not change.

Hi, i believe you have to send it to Sydney, Nova Scotia. You can find the complete address if you download the Guide (IMM 7000) - Application for permanent residence: Federal Skilled Worker Class
