FSW WORLDWIDE

[Jaycejay]

Truly, as we approach the fourth quarter we expect that IRCC will cut down on the CEC invites (they’ve actually reduced it to 4,500 in the last 2 CEC draws) and finally put a stop to it as they make way for all program draws. We can expect 2 more CEC draws this month but i guess that would be it for the year. The open draws will be towards next year’s immigration quota.

It’s becoming less appealing for them to keep inviting CEC since they are now almost certain that they can meet the remaining part of this year’s economic class immigration quota with the FSW and PNP applications that are few steps or already in the final lap of processing.

I expect that if the border re-opening goes as planned, IRCC will spend the last four month’s of this year focusing on those with expired CoPRs, finalizing applications and inviting nothing less than 30,000 applicants through the express entry system via general draws. There’s reason to remain positive and hopeful. Don’t overthink the situation; just continue living your lives to the fullest, things will fall in place soon

Were you clear on the grouping? I was wondering if the grouping is only for those whose application is approved or for others as well?

My understanding is as follows;

Purely outland files (ALL applicants in the application are outside Canada) are to be grouped into 3 categories.

If the International Network Office has the capacity to process COPRs and based on local conditions, then at the moment;

Group A (COPR will be valid for 6 months or more if issued) - Make Final Decision and issue COPR with travel restriction advisory letter.

Group B- (COPR will have 3 months or more validity if issued) Group applications but do not make Final Decision

Group C (less than 3 months) Group applications (separate from Group B) but do not make Final decision.

IF Travel restrictions have been lifted by September, then;

Group A- Same as above
Group B & C- Proceed to Final decision and issue documents. Reassess admissibility if less than 3 months.

There is also further guidance for December (maybe in case restrictions are not eased in September)

I think the COPR validity length is based on the expiration of medicals and other admissibility reviews. I.e your COPR cannot extend beyond how long your document assessments are valid for. That would be a factor in the groupings.

So Marco Polo is not really responsible?

Yep, it was Trudeau's fault, probably why we haven't made any progress, we've been barking in the wrong tree.

Most fsw o will fall in category B and especially Category C. My medicals will expire in October, so yeah ...lol

It's irrelevant, they sent it to a limited number of people.

So as per these emails/memos most FSW-O applicants from 2020 won't see any decision until early next year, and we would definitely need to get new medicals and PCC documents. Well at least we have a bit more clarity now.

Not everyone will receive it... Keep faith

I'll believe it when I see it...Don't get your hopes up just yet.

Whats more interesting is the proposed strike of CBSA etc. Wondering how it's gonna work out.

Was just wondering if there’s anyone here whose medical has been assessed and extended twice.

What would be the prediction for 2021 applicants based on these memos?

2021 applicants with 6 months of documents validity will be the 1st to receive PPR's as per these memos.

I have seen both cases for 2020 applicants, extended for some and re-medicals for some.

According to these memos people waiting the longest will have to wait the longest to get ppr?

That seems to be the case.
