I applied for PR as a Federal Skilled Worker, but I now qualify under the new Canadian Experience Class. Is it possible to switch to that new class? Would I have to withdraw my application and apply under the new class? I'm sure that I'm not the only one in this situation. Please, share your thoughts.

But, what should I do?
1-Send a new application under CEC wothout withdrawing the other one?
2-Withdraw FSW application and then re-apply under CEC?
3-Try to have my file moved to Buffalo to be processed as CEC?

Hi BCguy...
Is it possible to run parallel application, BCguy?
Please share your experience in this regard.

It is possible to have a FSW and PNP applications parallel and when one gets to medical stage, withdraw the other one. Some people have done it. CEC is new but I don't see why it wouldn't be the same thing.

FSW and CEC are both at federal level. I wouldn't think that CIC would allow to have two applications at the same time for one person. I would like to confirm that with CIC. |

Thanks BCguy. I would really appreciate it if you could ask your contact at CIC about this, when you have coffee with him/her today. What would be my next steps if I were to move from FSW to CEC? Again, thanks for your support. |

Is there a process to pull out the application for FSW? How do I do this? |
