you mean working visa or immigrant visa? If immigrant visa, is it possible that the cap has been reached this early??

i saw it on tv but i think it didn't really report that the cap has been reached already. the report was just saying that there is now a specific number of applications that will be processed per year.

Right buddy.. now there is a limit per year. You can read below the paragraph which i have copy and pasted from CIC website:

If you are applying under one of the 29 eligible occupations, as of June 26, 2010, a maximum of 20,000 Federal Skilled Worker applications will be considered for processing in the following 12 months. Within the 20,000 cap, a maximum of 1,000 Federal Skilled Worker applications per eligible occupation will be considered for processing each year.

Cheers...

It's not actually close but it's more of reaching the cap/limit set per skill.

This way, the canadian office can attend to the backlogs.
