After months of speculation that the new Federal Skilled Worker Program (FSWP) would not have a priority occupations list, Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC) has officially announced that the program will in fact have a priority occupations list when it starts taking applications on May 4th of this year.
CIC issued the notice on March 1st, and warned applicants who prepare their applications before the list is published that they do so at the risk that their occupation is not on that list and that their application will therefore not be accepted.
The notice also stated that three important facets of the new FSWP will be announced in April: the cap on the number of applications for the program that will be accepted this year, the composition of the priority occupations list, and the organizations that will be designated to conduct educational credential assessments.
hi

The State sponsor scheme is quiet complicated.

hi
if i have atleast one year experience in the past 10 years in a required occupation, any experience that falls beyond 10 years will also be considered like, 8 years ago i worked for 4 years where 2 years falls within 10 years and 2 beyond 10 years. will it be considered as 2 years or 4 years experience.
Thanks for your help

I got my bachelor in Engineering from my home country and the Masters from Canada (thesis). Am I still required to assess my bachelor before applying or CIC will only count on the last obtained degree (which is Canadian)?

Pls advice
Hi people,
Cic team seems too busy to reply. As canadian immigration announced that they will publish an occuapation priority list along with allocated organization for credential assessment in April, so it could be at any time upto 30th of April. Be patient and take a risk in terms of preparing your profile regardless of uncertanity of occupations. Many thanks
Am requesting for notifications
Thanks
