Dear all
Quick please.
I will be applying shortly. I get a year older after 2 months. Will my age points be calculated as of date of applying or when the application is processed ? Kindly let me know.
Thanks

Your age is sort of "freezed" on the day of application. In terms of points calculations, of course, not in reality :)

Hi,

date of application received is the LOCKED IN-DATE for which cic will consider when reviewing your application just relax.

By the way, there are signals from those who have already passed the immigration process that the lock-in date is often used in favor of the applicant. For instance, while your age is always "locked" so that you will not lose points on that as they are "freezed", you may still be granted extra points for your work experience if it is indicated as "TODAY" or "TILL NOW" or smth like that and another full year has passed (like if it was like 4 and 10/12 when you applied and it turned to 5 and 3/12 when your points were summed up)
