Ray of hope - FSW - 1

[Mercedes2021]

yes, i don't see my NOC there which is for a software engineer.

Ohhh man, same here, I'm a software engineer, but I'm quite upset that there is no NOC for software. They only focus on healthcare workers and skill trades

Another announcement made today.
https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/corporate/mandate/policies-operational-instructions-agreements/public-policies/trpr-international-graduates.html

This means anyone who got a Canadian degree from 2017 onwards and is currently employed in Canada will be eligible for PR. No min work experience needed!

If you get a Canadian degree and secure a job, you get a PR! This is crazy. What's going on ?!

That's not what it says. Read the whole thing. This is limited to individuals working in trades.

Sometimes I genuinely feel like Canada was a bad decision. Anyway.. we move

Not true. Working in trades is just one of the possible ways to meet the criteria. Having Associate, Bachelor’s, Master’s, or Doctorate degree and a job is sufficient as well.

I just want to know if a person who already applied for PR would be able to apply through that new stream. Just to increase chances. Being a FSW inland is not getting me the approval.

 

[EscoBlades]

This indicates that there are very few CEC folks in the pool.

That’s not what this indicates, lol

Shortage of CEC people...Isn't that a good sign for FSW? They'll run out of people in Canada at some point.

Temporary shortage, if anything. The international student quota for this year alone is enough to meet their annual immigration numbers. On top of that, they have additional temporary streams till november. So no, not particularly good news for FSW

You cannot have two PR applications at the same time so you have to withdraw your FSW first. Depending how fast others fill up the quota it might be a little risky.

Oh damn. I think I will have all the requirements to apply, but that would mean pay again.
Thanks.

At this rate, it looks like they will start handing out PR cards directly to any temporary resident than let outlanders in the country.

Not true. You can have an Associate's, Bachelor's, Master's or Doctorate in any field (it should be at least 8 months long), and then if you can find a job in any field and you will be eligible.

For example, say you got a one year masters degree in advertising and are employed in Tim Horton's (bad job market), you should in theory be eligible for PR.

Another 90K opportunities for inland applicants. Guess FSW will not resume in a short future.

Good luck everyone.

I officially quit myself.

Doesn't matter what your profession is. As long as you are currently working in Canada legally, and you got a degree no earlier than Jan 2017, you should be eligible. No particular NOC/field needed.

People seem to be mixing up the announcements. There are 3 new streams based on the public policies announced today.

They mainly focus on the following groups:

• temporary workers in health care (20,000)
• international students who graduated from a Canadian educational institution (40,000) - public policy here
• temporary workers in other selected essential occupations (30,000) - public policy here

The eligibility requirements for each are different. They all come into effect on May 6, 2021 and will end on November 5, 2021 or once the intake cap of the applicable stream has been reached.
