I knew someone was going to ask that, hence why I wrote in bold in my original post:sekhar0520 wrote:Hi
I have applied for immigration application from India in first week of April. At that time I was eligible under the rules as I fall into IT Manager category. On June 21st I have received a mail to submit the original application within 120 days to New Delhi Canadian embassy from Nova Scotia, Sydney.
I am waiting for my IELTS result and planning to apply in the next month. Am I eligible to apply now as IT Manager is removed from the list of occupations?
Please clarify.....thanks in advance
The cap is global, not to a particular visa office. Globally they will only approve 20,000 applications per year.jay09 wrote:Is this cap per visa processing centre or overall visa granted for entry into Canada by the canadian high commisions worldwide.

Under FSW yes, but you can still apply if you get a job offer. Also look at NOC 1122 to see if you can qualify under that (if your IT experience is/was consultancy to management).adityak77 wrote:Changes and tight immigration rules now impacted
First changes to MODL in AU , UK BA from 19th July and now Canada. ( removal of IT)
So does this mean that no IT professional can come to Canada under FSW?
Nope, my profession does not fall in NOC 1122. So Canada is out for me unless rules change again in 6-12 months.raymasa2 wrote:Under FSW yes, but you can still apply if you get a job offer.

Ray
You can wait for that to happen. Given the current economic situation, I doubt changes in the near future would relax the rules. Likely make them tighter.adityak77 wrote:Nope, my profession does not fall in NOC 1122. So Canada is out for me unless rules change again in 6-12 months.
Neither geological engineer nor environmental engineer occupations are on the list of eligible occupations, so the experience won't count for FSW.jay09 wrote:On a second though Ray, what if someone's experience cuts across 2 NOCs, and he/she has claimed points under them, how would the application be judged ie..... an engineer who has worked as a geological engineer and also as an environmental geologist.
This is the third time you have asked the same question. Please do not post same question multiple times.simmsimm wrote:I noticed that the application fees for FSW has been taken out of my bank account about 12 days ago but I have not received any mail (letter) since. I applied from London. Is it physical mail I will receive or email or both.
I am not an immigration adviser. Just providing answers where I know them.jay09 wrote:You are indeed a good immigration adviser. Well done for all your candid advice.
You will only get one or the other. If you got an email, you wont get one in the post.jay09 wrote:Ray, the answer to question asked by that gentleman/lady is that you could get a letter or email. As per my situation, I have only received an email.
If CIC received your application before June 26th you should be ok. If on or after that date, those occupations are not on the new list.jay09 wrote:Now to my earlier post regarding 2 NOC codes, at the time of my application , both geological engineer and geologist (environmental geologist inclusive) were among the 38 occupations, hence my reason to use them as examples.
