Hi Forum Members,

I'm engg graduate with 10+ years exp & working in USA right now. I'm interested in new FSW program. My occupation fall under :2174 - Compyter programmer and media developers." I'm hinking to apply for this year quota, but I have not applied for IELTS exam yet & education evaluation yet. Need to start...

If I start now then by Spet I would be ready with IELTS score & evaluation. Considering total 300 application for 2174 category, do you it is good idea to put all effort in applying under this year FSW program. My worry is 300 is not big number & theat could have reached by now.

Recentally I contacted one lawyer "A & K" and ask them for sugestion but they are saying I might get quialified & I should try applying under this year quota..But again my worry is if 300 reached then I will loose my money & time both...Please suggest!!!!

Thank!!!

Many of us think this NOC hit its cap sometime May (i.e. already done). There is absolutely no way spots will still be available in September. Unfortunately you'll be wasting your time and money by applying.

Applications for NOC 2174 might have already been flooded with 1000's and there is a high chance that there are 300 good applications among them. If you still want to give a try, apply on your own than shelling out thousands to your lawyers.
All the best.

It looks difficult this year but if you are keen to move to Canada and the category remains open next year;

1) you shall start with your ECA process. ECA is valid for 5 years and it will take about 3-4 weeks from US, I guess.

2) You can also go for IELTS, as its validity is again for 2 years.

After one month, the situation will be much clearer and you can decide that time whether to go for this year or the next one.
